As a global public health problem, myopia has attracted more and more attention for its high prevalence and severe visual impairment. Although extensive research on the risk factors for myopia has been conducted, the underlying pathogenesis is still unclear. Color vision, mediated by retinal cone cells, is a fundamental and important component of human visual functions. Indeed, numerous studies implicate color vision-associated environmental and biological factors in myopia pathogenesis, indicating that related interventions may delay myopia progression. Studies have shown that color vision can induce different accommodation responses under near work conditions and exert opposite effects in different light environments to influence myopia advancement. Besides, color vision-related genes and metabolites are proven to be correlated with myopia. This review aims to make detailed elaborations on the role of color vision in myopia and its potential interaction mechanism, hoping to provide new ideas for myopia prevention.

Department of Computer System and Technology, Faculty of Computer Science and Information Technology, Universiti Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Wilayar Persekutuan, Malaysia.

Underwater vision is essential in numerous applications, such as marine resource surveying, autonomous navigation, objective detection, and target monitoring. However, raw underwater images often suffer from significant color deviations due to light attenuation, presenting challenges for practical use. This systematic literature review examines the latest advancements in color correction methods for underwater image enhancement.

Using Colour to Control Conformation in a Chemical System Containing Multiple Tricyanofuran Photoacids.

Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Colour vision relies on selective, reversible isomerisation by visible light of a mixture of retinyl chromophores in photoreceptor cells. Synthetic molecular mimics of this wavelength-dependent induction of function are rare, despite the attractiveness of controlling chemical processes solely by the wavelength of incident light. Here, we report a colour-responsive chemical system composed of a cationic receptor complex, two competing chiral anionic ligands and two metastable photoacids with contrasting absorption properties.

Humans and other animals readily generalize abstract relations, such as recognizing constant in shape or color, whereas neural networks struggle. To investigate how neural networks generalize abstract relations, we introduce SimplifiedRPM, a novel benchmark for systematic evaluation. In parallel, we conduct human experiments to benchmark relational difficulty, enabling direct model-human comparisons.

The distribution of long-wavelength sensitive (L) and middle-wavelength sensitive (M) cones in the retina determines how different frequencies of incident light are sampled across space, and has been hypothesized to influence spatial and color vision. We asked whether the detection and color naming of small, short-duration increment stimuli depend on the relative numbers of L and M cones illuminated. Stimuli were corrected for optical aberrations by an adaptive optics system, and targeted to locations in the parafovea where cone spectral types were known.

Development of color learning protocol based on music-color association for people with visual impairment.

Ann Med

December 2025

Music Therapy Major, Graduate School of Church Music, Kosin University, Busan, South Korea.

Background: This research developed and confirmed the feasibility of a color-learning mobile application for people with visual impairment based on the hypothesis that the music-color association may be synaesthetically induced through emotion.

Methods: In total, 120 participants with visual impairment, comprising 60 congenital and 60 adventitious cases, were recruited. They underwent sequential procedures: Procedure 1 involved selecting color-music associations and designing tasks; Procedure 2 focused on application development with accessibility features; and Procedure 3 verified usability and effectiveness.
