  2. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(optics)

    A familiar dispersive prism. An optical prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that are designed to refract light. At least one surface must be angled — elements with two parallel surfaces are not prisms.

  3. Compound prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_prism

    Double-Amici. While the doublet prism is the simplest compound prism type, the double-Amici prism is much more common. This prism is a three-element system (a triplet), in which the first and third elements share both the same glass and the same apex angles.

  4. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

    Add 90° to axis value, and if the new axis value exceeds 180°, subtract 180° from the result. For example, a lens with a vertical power of −3.75 and a horizontal power of −2.25 could be specified as either −2.25 −1.50 × 180 or −3.75 +1.50 × 090.

  5. Porro prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porro_prism

    Double Porro prism or Porro 1 optical system A double Porro prism system reflects light four times. Porro prisms are most often used in pairs, forming a double Porro prism. A second prism rotated 90° with respect to the first, is placed such that light will traverse both prisms.

  6. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    Porro prism binoculars were made in such a way to erect an image in a relatively small space, thus binoculars using prisms started in this way. Porro prisms require typically within 10 arcminutes (1 / 6 of 1 degree) tolerances for alignment of their optical elements (collimation) at the factory.

  7. Astigmatism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astigmatism

    Three treatment options are available: glasses, contact lenses, and surgery. Glasses are the simplest. Contact lenses can provide a wider field of vision and fewer artifacts than even double aspheric lenses. Refractive surgery aims to permanently change the shape of the eye and thereby cure astigmatism.
