Various implementations disclosed herein include methods, electronic devices, and systems for performing perceptual-based color correction based on chromaticity values. To that end, in some implementations, a method is performed at an electronic device with one or more processors, a non-transitory memory, and a see-through display. The method includes determining a chromaticity value associated with ambient light from a physical environment. The chromaticity value quantifies the ambient light. The method includes determining a set of color correction values based on a function of the chromaticity value and image data. The set of color correction values and the chromaticity value together satisfy one or more perceptual criteria. The method includes modifying the image data in order to generate display data based on a function of the set of color correction values. The method includes displaying the display data on the see-through display.
