You've probably all seen this image before! When people had different opinions about what colour this dress was, the picture went viral.

Yet what do you think? Do you see a blue and black dress, or a gold and white one?

    Earlier today it was white and gold, but now it's blue and brown.

    What is the significance and how bad is my eyesight? I know it's bad along with my hearing loss. There isn't a bit of me that works as it should, haha

    Gold and white

    Maybe it has something to do with the brightness scale on your device?

    I'll have another look later.

    Btw I have night blindness and cataracts but dont think it's got anything to do with our eyes/eyesight.

    It's really weird isn't it. Still looks gold and white.
    I looked online and there is an explanation for it but its above my understanding.
    It is actually blue and black apparently.

    Bit like that question, What colour is the sky?

    It's still gold and white to me, hasn't changed all day.

    Online the science stuff says it has something to do with the light source and the way our brains compensate for this. Sounds very complicated! More people see it as gold and white 69%. The 31% see blue and black, and the dress actually is blue and black.
    Red cars look grey after dark, anyone noticed that?

    My car is red and it doesn't look grey in the dark.

    Lol! Maybe it is my night blindness.

    Or maybe we all see some things slightly differently?
