Dalton for Chrome

While more and more web designers try to come up with solutions that cover a wider array of users, there are still people who cannot fully enjoy their browsing sessions due to the color vision deficiencies they suffer from.

Dalton for Chrome tries to provide users with more control over the visual experience they are having while surfing the web by letting them adjust the colors they are prompted with in a way that suits their needs.

First off, it is worth pointing out that this is a Chrome extension that any user should effortless install in a matter of seconds. Once the setup process is complete, you can click the addon’s icon in the toolbar and start configuring it.

This step should be equally easy since all you need to do is select one of the following three color blindness affections: deuteranomaly, protanomaly, and tritanomaly. Each of these deficiencies is accompanied by a series of representations you may want to take a look at in order to analyze how you sight can cope with a given spectrum.

The severity of the deficiency can be adjusted using a slider bar, and the same can be said about color intensity, with all the changes you apply meant to offer better visibility and enhance your overall browsing experience.

Note that modifications are visible in the browser in real time, but there is no need to worry about being stuck with them since resetting the options is one mouse click away.

On an ending note, Dalton for Chrome is an approachable browser addon you could turn to in order to apply subtle but welcome enhancements to the appearance of the websites you are visiting. The Chrome extension should cater to the needs of color blind people who want to try out adjustments meant to increase visibility.

While it comes with a basic set of features, it should be enough if you want to make quick changes. If, on the other hand, you would rather take a more powerful app for a spin, you might be happy to know there is also a desktop edition you can download from Softpedia.
