Doctors conducting operations in the form of blue or green in order to be able to be distracted by the color of blood





Previously, doctors constantly wore a white uniform - the color of purity. Then, in the early 20th century, a famous surgeon began putting green, as decided that it would be easier for the eyes. Subsequent experience has shown that green for operations is best because it is the exact opposite of red in the color wheel.

Green helps doctors see better for two reasons. Firstly, zglyad on blue or green tones can let your eyes rest on the doctor's red blood or internal organs of the patient during surgery. The brain as it opposes these colors together. If a surgeon stares at something red or pink, it becomes immune to these colors. Red signal to the brain becomes less noticeable fade, because of which it becomes difficult to distinguish between the doctor nuances of the human body. If from time to time to look at something blue or green, the eyes are sensitive to shades of red.

Second, focus on the red shades can create a white surface distracting illusion of green patches of color. These frightening green phantoms can appear if the doctor translated gaze from reddish body tissue on something white, for example, a patient gown or suit anesthesiologist. Moreover, glancing back to the patient, the doctor can continue to see green spots already on a red background. It may distract the surgeon as we distract light floating spots before his eyes after a sharp flash.

This happens because the white contains all the colors of the spectrum, including red and green. But from the red signals the brain is still not rested, so the red signal time may be mistakenly perceived as green.

However, if the doctor is looking after the red than white, and green, the green phantom illusion merge with the background and will not divert attention, and her eyes rested. So, despite the fact that doctors are sometimes run by the hospital in the costumes of all colors, green is certainly the best choice for them.
