The hex color #0759DF, also known as Science Blue, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly for users with visual impairments. Its relatively low luminance value (compared to pure white) means it might not provide sufficient contrast when used as text against a white background. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text to meet WCAG AA standards. When used for interactive elements like buttons or links, careful consideration should be given to providing alternative cues, such as underlines or icons, to ensure usability for all users. It is advised to test color combinations with accessibility tools to verify sufficient contrast and readability, guaranteeing a more inclusive user experience. Sufficient contrast helps individuals with low vision or color blindness perceive content effectively. Also keep in mind to provide alternative text descriptions for images using this color.
