Adaptation to Chromatic Aberration by the Human Visual System

Prolonged exposure to the chromatic dispersion produced by prism spectacles leads to a perceptual adaptation. The adaptation develops rapidly in the first two days of the wearing of the spectacles, and seems to be a special reaction to the relative change in illuminance at intensity gradients on the...

Zusammenfassung:	Prolonged exposure to the chromatic dispersion produced by prism spectacles leads to a perceptual adaptation. The adaptation develops rapidly in the first two days of the wearing of the spectacles, and seems to be a special reaction to the relative change in illuminance at intensity gradients on the retina.
