Say what color filters do
Tell whether retinting the screen would make it easier on your eyes.
Color filters shift the colors a screen draws with, so two shades that look identical come apart.
Red against green is the usual pair. The words do not change, only their color.
Key points
- Color filters retint the screen so similar shades come apart
- They change your screen only, and switch off in one press
What to remember
- On and off in a second, so trying it costs nothing.
- A filter changes your screen, never the photograph.
