Figure 3

Simulations of the changes in color appearance predicted as observers adapt to age-related changes in lens pigment density. (Left) The upper left image from Figure 2 as filtered through the eyes of an observer with the average lens density of a 70 year old (relative to the reference lens density of a 12 year old). (Right) The filtered image after adapting to the mean color shift by rescaling the cone sensitivities for the mean spectral change. Independent gain changes in the cones compensate for most (but not all) of the predicted effect of the lens screening on color appearance.
