  2. History of optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_optics

    [45] [47] [48] The English friar Roger Bacon, during the 1260s or 1270s, wrote works on optics, partly based on the works of Arab writers, that described the function of corrective lenses for vision and burning glasses. These volumes were outlines for a larger publication that was never produced, so his ideas never saw mass dissemination.

  3. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    Typical pair of single vision glasses. Single vision lenses correct for only one distance. If they correct for far distance, the person must accommodate to see up close. If the person cannot accommodate, they may need a separate correction for near distances, or else use a multifocal lens (see below).

  4. Graves' disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graves'_disease

    Severe cases threatening vision (corneal exposure or optic nerve compression) are treated with steroids or orbital decompression. In all cases, cessation of smoking is essential. Double vision can be corrected with prism glasses and surgery (the latter only when the process has been stable for a while).

  5. Hypertropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertropia

    diplopia or double vision - more seen in adults (maturity / plasticity of neural pathways) and suppression mechanisms of the brain in sorting out the images from the two eyes. cyclotropia , a cyclotorsional deviation of the eyes (rotation around the visual axis), particularly when the root cause is an oblique muscle paresis causing the hypertropia.

  6. Achromatic lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achromatic_lens

    The most common type of achromat is the achromatic doublet, which is composed of two individual lenses made from glasses with different amounts of dispersion. Typically, one element is a negative ( concave ) element made out of flint glass such as F2, which has relatively high dispersion, and the other is a positive ( convex ) element made of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_prism_dioptre_reflex_test

    The Four Prism Dioptre Reflex Test (also known as the 4 PRT, or 4 Prism Dioptre Base-out Test) is an objective, non-dissociative test used to prove the alignment of both eyes (i.e. the presence of binocular single vision) by assessing motor fusion. [1]
