  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prentice's rule, named so after the optician Charles F. Prentice, is a formula used to determine the amount of induced prism in a lens: = where: P is the amount of prism correction (in prism dioptres) c is decentration (the distance between the pupil centre and the lens's optical centre, in millimetres)

  3. Achromatic lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achromatic_lens

    To make the linear dispersion of the system zero, the system must satisfy the equations 1 f 1 + 1 f 2 = 1 f d b l t , 1 f 1 V 1 + 1 f 2 V 2 = 0 ; {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}{\frac {1}{\ f_{1}\ }}+{\frac {1}{\ f_{2}\ }}&={\frac {1}{\ f_{\mathsf {dblt}}\ }}\ ,\\{\frac {1}{\ f_{1}\ V_{1}\ }}+{\frac {1}{\ f_{2}\ V_{2}\ }}&=0\ ;\end{aligned}}}

  4. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_distance

    The formula for vertex correction is = (), where F c is the power corrected for vertex distance, F is the original lens power, and x is the change in vertex distance in meters.

  5. Esophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esophoria

    Esophoria is an eye condition involving inward deviation of the eye, usually due to extra-ocular muscle imbalance. It is a type of heterophoria. Cause. Causes include: Refractive errors; Divergence insufficiency; Convergence excess; this can be due to nerve, muscle, congenital or mechanical anomalies.

  6. List of relativistic equations - Wikipedia

    Lorentz factor. where and v is the relative velocity between two inertial frames . For two frames at rest, γ = 1, and increases with relative velocity between the two inertial frames. As the relative velocity approaches the speed of light, γ → ∞. Time dilation (different times t and t' at the same position x in same inertial frame)

  7. Bolometric correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolometric_correction

    Description. Mathematically, such a calculation can be expressed: The bolometric correction for a range of stars with different spectral types and groups is shown in the following table: [1] [2] [3] The bolometric correction is large and negative both for early type (hot) stars and for late type (cool) stars.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_Wing

    Maddox wing. The Maddox Wing is an instrument utilized by ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists in the measurement of strabismus (misalignment of the eyes; commonly referred to as a squint or lazy eye by the lay person). It is a quantitative and subjective method of measuring the size of a strabismic deviation by dissociation of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-air_gravity_anomaly

    The free-air correction is the amount that must be added to a measurement at height to correct it to the reference level: δ g F = 2 g R × h {\displaystyle \delta g_{F}={\frac {2g}{R}}\times h} Here we have assumed that measurements are made relatively close to the surface so that R does not vary significantly.

    In statistical quality control, the EWMA chart (or exponentially weighted moving average chart) is a type of control chart used to monitor either variables or attributes-type data using the monitored business or industrial process 's entire history of output. [1] While other control charts treat rational subgroups of samples individually, the ...
