  • Title: Dichoptic color perception and the X-chrom lens.
    Author: Polizzotto L.
    Journal: Am J Optom Physiol Opt; 1981 Dec; 58(12):1180-6. PubMed ID: 6976758.
    Abstract:
    Dichoptic color experiments were performed with color normals and with protanopes and deuteranopes. Different targets were presented to each eye in a stereoscope. Experiment 1 used homogeneous chromatic targets. Experiment 2 involved black and white photographs taken and viewed through various filters. Experiment 3 utilized a dichromat wearing an X-Chrom lens. The experiments indicate that the cortical perception achieved by summing input of each eye when one eye has a filter in front of it may aid color discrimination for dichromats.
