A new extension allows users to fine tune the color palette of web pages.

The free tool uses a sliding scale to help users who have problems distinguishing red from green or yellow from grey continually adjust the browser until it comes perfectly into line with their perception of color.

The extension is available to download now from the Chrome Web Store.
