The hex color #222DA8, also known as Torea Bay, presents distinct accessibility challenges, particularly when used as a background or foreground color for text and interactive elements. Its dark hue provides insufficient contrast against lighter text, making it difficult for users with visual impairments to read comfortably. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text. This color likely falls short of these recommendations when paired with standard white or light gray text. Developers should carefully assess the color's contrast ratio using online tools and consider alternative, lighter colors or text colors to ensure readability and usability for all users, including those with low vision or color blindness. Proper color contrast is crucial for creating an inclusive and accessible web experience, adhering to best practices for digital accessibility.
