Values are shown at full precision, so converting back gives exactly #5eead4. The rounded form is what you normally paste into CSS.

Step-by-step math

Every number below is computed from the input, nothing is looked up.

1. sRGB → linear

R: 94/255 = 0.36863 → 0.111932  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
G: 234/255 = 0.91765 → 0.822786  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
B: 212/255 = 0.83137 → 0.658375  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)

2. linear sRGB → LMS

l = 0.4122·R + 0.5363·G + 0.0514·B = 0.521298
m = 0.2119·R + 0.6807·G + 0.1074·B = 0.654496
s = 0.0883·R + 0.2817·G + 0.6300·B = 0.656440

3. cube root

l′ = ∛0.521298 = 0.804814
m′ = ∛0.654496 = 0.868232
s′ = ∛0.656440 = 0.869091

4. LMS′ → Oklab

L = 0.2105·l′ + 0.7936·m′ − 0.0041·s′ = 0.85488
a = 1.9780·l′ − 2.4286·m′ + 0.4506·s′ = -0.12505
b = 0.0259·l′ + 0.7828·m′ − 0.8087·s′ = -0.00234

5. Oklab → OKLCH

C = √(a² + b²) = 0.12508
H = atan2(b, a) = 181.071°
L = 0.85488

6. OKLCH

oklch(0.85488 0.12508 181.071)
rounded: oklch(0.855 0.125 181.1)
