  2. Deck prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deck_prism

    In normal usage, the prism hangs below the overhead and disperses the light sideways; the top is flat and installed flush with the deck, becoming part of the deck. The lens shapes were naturally derived from the process of handmaking the glass on an 'iron' and would have predated the ability to manufacture flat glass.

  3. Glasses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasses

    Glasses, also known as eyeglasses and spectacles, are vision eyewear with clear or tinted lenses mounted in a frame that holds them in front of a person's eyes, typically utilizing a bridge over the nose and hinged arms, known as temples or temple pieces that rest over the ears.

  4. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    8×42 roof prism binoculars with rainguard and opened tethered lens caps. Binoculars or field glasses are two refracting telescopes mounted side-by-side and aligned to point in the same direction, allowing the viewer to use both eyes (binocular vision) when viewing distant objects.

  5. George M. Stratton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_M._Stratton

    Stratton wore these glasses over his right eye and covered the left with a patch during the day, and slept blindfolded at night. Initial movement was clumsy, but adjusting to the new environment took only a few days. [59] Stratton tried variations of the experiment over the next few years. First he wore the glasses for eight days, back at Berkeley.

  6. Optical coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

    Optically coated mirrors and lenses. An optical coating is one or more thin layers of material deposited on an optical component such as a lens, prism or mirror, which alters the way in which the optic reflects and transmits light. These coatings have become a key technology in the field of optics.

  7. Dispersion (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Material dispersion can be a desirable or undesirable effect in optical applications. The dispersion of light by glass prisms is used to construct spectrometers and spectroradiometers. However, in lenses, dispersion causes chromatic aberration, an undesired effect that may degrade images in microscopes, telescopes, and photographic objectives.
