Longitudinal Chromatic Aberration
Longitudinal chromatic aberration is defined as the "variation of the eye's focusing power for different wavelengths". This chromatic difference varies from about 400nm to 700nm across the visible spectrum. In longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA), the refracting properties of the eye cause light rays of shorter wavelengths, such as blue, to converge before longer wavelength colors.

Famous quotes containing the word aberration:
“The era of the political was one of anomie: crisis, violence, madness and revolution. The era of the transpolitical is that of anomaly: an aberration of no consequence, contemporaneous with the event of no consequence.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
