چکیده

Previous studies have demonstrated that accommodation will respond to sine gratings in which the relative modulations of red, green and blue image components have been altered to simulate the effects of defocus and longitudinal chromatic aberration. The present study aimed to determine the tolerance of the accommodative system to relative phase shifts in those components induced by chromatic misalignment. It was found that accommodation can tolerate moderate amounts of chromatic misalignment (6'), but responds adversely when misalignments are large. Applications to visual display terminals and spectacle lens and instrument design are discussed.

Chick eyes compensate for chromatic simulations of hyperopic and myopic defocus: Evidence that the eye uses longitudinal chromatic aberration to guide eye-growth

Longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA) causes short wavelengths to be focused in front of long wavelengths. This chromatic signal is evidently used to guide ocular accommodation. We asked whether chick eyes exposed to static gratings simulating the chromatic effects of myopic or hyperopic defocus would "compensate" for the simulated defocus. We alternately exposed one eye of each chick to a si...

The eye's longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA) is known to drive `reflex' accommodation to moving objects, but the evidence is not as clear for stationary objects. The present study examined whether accommodation can be driven by static simulations of the effects of defocus and LCA. Accommodation was recorded continuously while each of 12 subjects viewed images (through a 0.75 mm pinhole) th...

Accommodation responds to changing contrast of long, middle and short spectral-waveband components of the retinal image

We simulated the effects of longitudinal (axial) chromatic aberration and defocus on contrast of the long-, middle- and short-wavelength components of the retinal image to determine whether the effects of chromatic aberration are sufficient to drive accommodation. Accommodation was monitored continuously while subjects (12) viewed a 3 c/deg white sine-wave grating (0.92 contrast) in a Badal sti...

Accommodation responses to stimuli in cone contrast space

The aim was to identify the cone contributions and pathways for reflex accommodation. Twelve illumination conditions were used to test specified locations in cone-contrast space. Accommodation was monitored continuously in a Badal optometer while the grating stimulus (2.2 c/d sine-wave; 0.27 modulation) moved sinusoidally (0.195 Hz) towards and away from the eye from a mean position of 2.00 D (...

Chromatic Harmonic Indices and Chromatic Harmonic Polynomials of Certain Graphs

In the main this paper introduces the concept of chromatic harmonic polynomials denoted, $H^chi(G,x)$ and chromatic harmonic indices denoted, $H^chi(G)$ of a graph $G$. The new concept is then applied to finding explicit formula for the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic polynomials and the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic index of certain graphs. It is also applied to split graphs and ce...
