In the human eye, cone receptors lose their color sensitivity with age, but our subjective experience of color remains largely unchanged over the years. This ability to compensate for age-related changes in color perception rests in higher levels of the visual system, according to research published May 8 in the open access journal iPLOS ONE/i by Sophie Wuerger from the University of Liverpool, UK.

Brain Mechanisms Keep Color Vision Constant Across Lifespan
