Focusing on mixed narrow band stimuli: Implications for mechanisms of accommodation and displays (2024)
Journal Article
Finch, A. P., Fernandez-Alonso, M., Kirby, A. K., Read, J. C. A., & Love, G. D. (2024). Focusing on mixed narrow band stimuli: Implications for mechanisms of accommodation and displays. Journal of Vision, 24(9), Article 14. https://doi.org/10.1167/jov.24.9.14

The eye has considerable chromatic aberration, meaning that the accommodative demand varies with wavelength. Given this, how does the eye accommodate to light of differing spectral content? Previous work is not conclusive but, in general, the eye foc... Read More about Focusing on mixed narrow band stimuli: Implications for mechanisms of accommodation and displays.

Ocular accommodation and wavelength: The effect of longitudinal chromatic aberration on the stimulus-response curve. (2024)
Journal Article
Fernandez-Alonso, M., Finch, A. P., Love, G. D., & Read, J. C. A. (2024). Ocular accommodation and wavelength: The effect of longitudinal chromatic aberration on the stimulus-response curve. Journal of Vision, 24(2), Article 11. https://doi.org/10.1167/jov.24.2.11

The longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA) of the eye creates a chromatic blur on the retina that is an important cue for accommodation. Although this mechanism can work optimally in broadband illuminants such as daylight, it is not clear how the sy...

Creating correct aberrations: why blur isn’t always bad in the eye (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Love, G. D., Banks, M. S., Cholewiak, S. A., Finch, A. P., Bifano, T. G., Gigan, S., & Ji, N. (2020, February). Creating correct aberrations: why blur isn’t always bad in the eye. Presented at Adaptive Optics and Wavefront Control for Biological Systems VI, San Francisco, CA

In optics in general, a sharp aberration-free image is normally the desired goal, and the whole field of adaptive optics has developed with the aim of producing blur-free images. Likewise, in ophthalmic optics we normally aim for a sharp image on the... Read More about Creating correct aberrations: why blur isn’t always bad in the eye.
