I also noticed something about white point adaptation during the time I had only one implant. Even after a long time of adaptation in a given environment, closing one eye and then the other showed a definite yellow shift in the untreated eye compared to the one with an implant. I did not expect this, thinking that each eye would adapt to the same overall balance.
You mean you felt the one eye showed yellow compared to white, as opposed to the other showing blue? [The yellower one looked definitely yellower than neutral. The bluer one looked closer to neutral, if I recall correctly. - WB] It's said that the roots of the term gamut are in 15th century music with the term referring to lowest G in a complete scale. (Quick digression into idea of a musical scale as a range of distinct and countable notes) Do you think that there's such a trait as musical "perfect pitch" but for color? [Interesting thought. First, not sure what the analogous definition would be (ability to name the wavelength of a pure stimulus?) and second, I think there probably is no such ability. - WB] _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
