The amount of longitudinal chromatic aberration in group of younger and older subjects is compared in three separate studies, using a laser speckle optometer. Badal optometers with monochromatic illumination. and monochromatic retinoscopy. No evidence is Found for any systematic change in chromatic aberration with age.
