A recent study involving Abbe and Pulfrich refractometry analyses the dispersion of the human lens and the ocular media of a number of vertebrates. In general, the lens and, to a lesser extent, the cornea, are more dispersive than expected at wavelengths below 500 nm. The dispersion findings of this study were used in conjunction with reduced eye parameters of a number of vertebrates to calculate the longitudinal chromatic aberration of rock bass, frog, chicken, rat, cat, pig, cow, and human eyes. The calculated chromatic aberration of the human eye is greater than values reported earlier, because of the exaggerated dispersion of the lens at short wavelengths. While the values calculated for the additional species studies may be larger in some instances than expected, presumably due to lens dispersion as well, chromatic aberration is not large enough to account for the hyperopia found by retinoscopic study of small eyes.
最近一项涉及阿贝折射仪和普尔弗里希折射仪的研究分析了多种脊椎动物的人眼晶状体和眼内介质的色散情况。一般来说，在波长低于500纳米时，晶状体以及程度稍轻的角膜，其色散程度比预期的要高。该研究的色散结果与多种脊椎动物的简化眼参数相结合，用于计算岩鲈、青蛙、鸡、大鼠、猫、猪、牛和人眼的纵向色差。由于晶状体在短波长处的色散被夸大，计算得出的人眼色差大于先前报道的值。虽然在某些情况下，为其他物种研究计算出的值可能比预期的要大，推测也是由于晶状体色散，但色差还不足以解释通过检影法对小眼进行研究时发现的远视现象。
