What can I use instead of red and green?
Note that the color that looks the most the same for people with normal vision and readers with red-/green-blindness (the most common types of colorblindness) is blue. “Blue is the safest hue.” If you want red- and green-blind readers to perceive color as you do, choose blue.
Why should you avoid green and red color combinations?
Color Hues Are Too Close on Visible Spectrum
Green and red color hues together tend to make each other brighter by competing for the foreground. This is because the hues are too close to each other on the visible spectrum.
Is red and green a good combination?
The straight answer to that question is: yes. While green and red are opposite each other on the color wheel, they're considered completely complementary, the two tones can still have a wonderful partnership.
