Everyone says that colors, text, and backgrounds have to have strong contrast to make design and websites more accessible to the visually impaired. But how can you decide what has enough contrast? WebAIM (Web Accessibility in Mind) developed a color checker just for that! Simply input the color codes for the colors you want to use and see the contrast ratio they make. They also have the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines for your reference, so check out your ratios with this free tool.
