Okay, this question isn't exactly a flashlight topic, but it's flashlight...adjacent. Apologies if this is not the best place on the forum. Anyway...
We're all familiar with the way white light can appear different in terms of tint and color temperature. Compare two lights with two different emitters and you'll see difference on the blue-yellow axis and the pink-green axis. But have you ever compared your left and right eyes?
I don't know how I discovered this, but my left eye sees white light as noticeably warmer than my right eye. With a constant light source, I can alternate covering each eye and see a subtle but perceptible difference. When I use both eyes, they blend together to somewhere in the middle.
I imagine we're dealing with a normal distribution here, with most people having little-to-no difference between their two eyes, and comparatively few having a large difference.
What are your eyes like? Have you ever looked for such a thing?
