Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm slightly red & green color blind and the dark/bright red in tooltips is impossible for me to read. All I see is a bright red blur. The color blind options in wow do not help. They only make things worse.

Describe the solution you'd like
I'd like to have some method ( hex, slider, name ) to change the color of the tooltips to make them easier to see for people with color disabilities

Describe alternatives you've considered
idk.

Additional context
When the text is large like this image shows I can read it though its slightly blurry

Note that while I fixed that issue, we use red in many different places and while we can tweak colors, accessibility is not exactly a priority.

I can understand that. If you could please put it on a this century to-do list that would be a blessing. ty.

I think you need a more generalist tool to fix this across all apps on your computer, i don't think it's realistic to ask for each of the app you use to change their options.

Maybe this would help with your issue? https://www.ryobi.co.jp/products/visolve/en/

Well we could simply switch the color, red is argueably the wrong color anyway, the standard for emphasized text in wow is yellow.

If you do decide to change the text color I suggest maybe using an outline or shadow to help with the contrast.

That would be wonderful. @mrbuds suggestion was blocked due to trojan. Nor do I really want it affecting all apps on my pc since I work with a graphic designer and am a photographer so having it fool me on all things would be bad.
