  abstract =   {Vision impairments, such as cataracts, affect how many
  people interact with their environment, yet are rarely
  considered by architects and lighting designers because of a
  lack of design tools. To address this, we present a method
  to simulate vision impairments caused by cataracts in
  virtual reality (VR), using eye tracking for gaze-dependent
  effects. We conducted a user study to investigate how
  lighting affects visual perception for users with cataracts.
  Unlike past approaches, we account for the user's vision and
  some constraints of VR headsets, allowing for calibration of
  our simulation to the same level of degraded vision for all
  participants.},
