What Colour Are Your Eyes? : A 2015 International Year of Light Lecture Other events...
A public lecture by Professor David Mackey, Managing Director of the Lions Eye Institute and Director, Centre for Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at UWA.

It seems like the simplest question in the world and it is one of the fundamental ways in which we define appearance. But did you know a host of different factors - from the anatomy and physiology of our eyes determining the way we perceive colour through to genetics, environment and age - influence what we see in the mirror?

Professor Mackey will talk about the journey from the eye to the mirror and back and the science involved in the way we see the colour of our own eyes.
