Another annual eye test completed with my favourite optometrist. She tells me I'm not a danger to the public. 😆 My left eye has lost a few letters and the cataract's in a tricky place, but otherwise all good and no need for new lenses.

As our eyes age our lenses yellow a bit — I didn't know that. 👀

@Miraz Does that affect how we perceive colours?

@crossingthethreshold I didn’t think to ask that, I’m afraid. When I got new specs last year they were very slightly bluish and the technician explained that’s because the glass yellows a bit over time. Now they are very slightly yellowish. I guess when I look at something half through the glasses and half not then I can see a colour difference. I guess that would also translate to our unaided vision.

@crossingthethreshold @Miraz from personal experience, I can say that yes it does a little. Each eye sees a slightly different shade.

@wfm @Miraz That is interesting. Another slant on we all see things differently.
