title: Color of visual display terminals and the eye. Green VDTs provide the optimal stimulus to accommodation.
abstract: The longitudinal chromatic aberration of the human eye is substantial and therefore the color of the phosphor chosen for a visual display terminal (VDT) will affect refractive state and accommodative demand. For most working distances, green stimuli (lambda max 520 nm) are optimal.
