Summary
The paper investigates the influence of macular pigment on the human perception of glare, particularly in the context of daylight in office environments, and finds that macular pigment optical density correlates with glare perception in conditions with a blue-colored sun disc in the near periphery.
Categories
Eye health: The paper explores the role of macular pigment in the human eye in relation to perception of glare, particularly in daylight conditions.
Lighting Design Considerations: The study's findings have implications for lighting design in office environments, particularly in relation to managing glare from daylight.
Well-being: The paper discusses the impact of glare on occupant well-being and performance in office environments.
