Shinobu Ishihara (1879 – 1963) was a Japanese ophthalmologist who created the Ishihara color test in 1818 to detect color blindness. His tests are in the public domain; these variations were created by me in the Synergy0011 palette; they haven't been tested for efficacy and shouldn't be used for actual colorblindness testing.
