    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    A pair of contact lenses, positioned with the concave side facing upward. A corrective lens is a transmissive optical device that is worn on the eye to improve visual perception. The most common use is to treat refractive errors: myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.

  3. Progressive lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_lens

    Progressive lenses are corrective lenses used in eyeglasses to correct presbyopia and other disorders of accommodation. They are characterised by a gradient of increasing lens power , added to the wearer's correction for the other refractive errors .

  4. Anti-reflective coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-reflective_coating

    An antireflective, antiglare or anti-reflection (AR) coating is a type of optical coating applied to the surface of lenses, other optical elements, and photovoltaic cells to reduce reflection. In typical imaging systems, this improves the efficiency since less light is lost due to reflection.

  5. Aspheric lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspheric_lens

    Aspheric eyeglass lenses allow for crisper vision than standard "best form" lenses, mostly when looking in other directions than the lens optical center. Moreover, the reduction of the magnification effect of a lens may help with prescriptions that have different powers in the 2 eyes ( anisometropia ).

  6. Optics and vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optics_and_vision

    Glasses (also called eyeglasses or spectacles) are frames bearing lenses worn in front of the eyes, normally for vision correction, eye protection, or for protection from UV rays. Modern glasses are typically supported by pads on the bridge of the nose and by temple arms placed over the ears.
