Colors Do Look Different After a Lens Implant!

The author describes how colors of some familiar objects and scenes shifted when viewed with one of his eyes after a lens implant, compared to the other eye without implant. Estimates of the shifts are described with common color names. Some of the shifts were spectacular. Variations in the spectral transmission of the lens are believed responsible for the shifts. Implications affecting the choice of colors for interiors, fashions and other design uses are discussed. Appendices contain observations on additional colors and data for matches on the Glenn and D & H Color Rules.
