  2. Visible spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_spectrum

    White light is dispersed by a prism into the colors of the visible spectrum. The visible spectrum is the band of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye. Electromagnetic radiation in this range of wavelengths is called visible light (or simply light).

  3. Stereoscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscopy

    The ChromaDepth eyeglasses contain special view foils, which consist of microscopically small prisms. This causes the image to be translated a certain amount that depends on its color. If one uses a prism foil now with one eye but not on the other eye, then the two seen pictures – depending upon color – are more or less widely separated.

  4. Cover test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover_test

    The unilateral cover test is performed by having the patient focus on an object then covering the fixating eye and observing the movement of the other eye. If the eye was exotropic, covering the fixating eye will cause an inwards movement; and if esotropic, covering the fixating eye will

  5. Cyclovergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclovergence

    Torsional eye positions can also be measured using fundus cyclometry, which is based on infrared scanning laser ophthalmoscopy. [ 13 ] There have been contradictory statements on whether cyclovergence can be measured subjectively, that is, by an evaluation of the subjects' own statements on whether lines in a scene appear at an angle in the two ...

  6. Phosphorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorescence

    Whereas the term "fluorescence" tended to refer to luminescence that ceased immediately (by human-eye standards) when removed from excitation, "phosphorescence" referred to virtually any substance that glowed for appreciable periods in darkness, sometimes to include even chemiluminescence (which occasionally produced substantial amounts of heat).

  7. Eye color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_color

    The irises of human eyes exhibit a wide spectrum of colours. Eye color is a polygenic phenotypic trait determined by two factors: the pigmentation of the eye's iris [1] [2] and the frequency-dependence of the scattering of light by the turbid medium in the stroma of the iris.

  8. Prism fusion range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_fusion_range

    The prism fusion range (PFR) or fusional vergence amplitude is a clinical eye test performed by orthoptists, optometrists, and ophthalmologists to assess motor fusion, specifically the extent to which a patient can maintain binocular single vision in the presence of increasing vergence demands.

  9. Chromostereopsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromostereopsis

    Prisms in front of the eyes determined the separation of the visual and null axes. The product of these separate measurements predicted the apparent depth expected with full-pupil stereoscopy . Agreement was good with expected results, supplying additional evidence that chromostereopsis depends on chromatic dispersion.
