Color-naming evidence for tritan vision in the fovea

M H Bornstein et al. Am J Optom Physiol Opt. 1978 Sep.

Abstract

A color-naming task was used to assess color vision in the fovea and parafovea. Like traditional psychophysical procedures, color naming showed that short-wavelength vision is suppressed centrally. The anatomical and physiological mechanisms underlying tritan foveal vision are discussed.
