Abstract:Laser Eye Protection (LEP) devices selectively alter the spectral environment and affect the ability to identify and discriminate color. Pilots and mariners must wear LEP for their safety and still make decisions based on colored lights and objects. These abilities can be compromised with LEP. Determining the level of degradation caused by LEP remains challenging; LEP devices are not uniform in construction and results from laboratory tests may be poor indicators of actual user performance. In addition, perfor… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
