DESCRIPTION:We will explore the art and science of colour vision across th
 e life span. We shall do so in the form of a biography\; the biography of 
 the eye of Claude Monet and that of his fellow Impressionists. Neural path
 ways subserving colour vision change continuously throughout life. Concurr
 ently\, the lens loses its transparency\; it becomes brown\, thereby decre
 asing portions of the short-wave spectrum reaching the retina. It is often
  thought that colour perception will be altered owing to brunescence of th
 e aging lens. This expectation is reasonable\, but is that what actually h
 appens? The answer may surprise you.\nSpeakers:\nDr John S. Werner (Leverh
 ulme Trust Visiting Professor)
