The color #2333F5, also known as Persian Blue, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly in text-based applications. Due to its relatively low luminance, using this color for text on a white background (or any light background) can result in insufficient contrast, 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 standard text and 3:1 for large text. Persian Blue may not meet these standards, potentially excluding users with low vision. To improve accessibility, consider using Persian Blue with darker backgrounds or pairing it with a high contrast accent color. Alternatively, lighter shades of blue or other colors with higher luminance values may be more suitable for text-based elements.
