Abstract
SightGlow is a web extension tailored to improve color perception accuracy for individuals with red-green color blindness. The research was focused on evaluating whether personalized color adjustment and selective zoom enhance user interaction and satisfaction for individuals with low vision and color vision impairment. The system was developed as an iterative process by conducting a pilot user survey. Existing web extensions were limited in addressing challenges faced by low vision and color blindness; hence this application provides additional features, including selective zoom and color controls, which make it unique. Most participants responded that the application's flexibility to adjust the color balance for any images or video graphic content enhanced their user experience, hence resulting in the effectiveness of the system.
