  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    A lens which includes some amount of prism correction will displace the viewed image horizontally, vertically, or a combination of both directions. The most common application for this is the treatment of strabismus. By moving the image in front of the deviated eye, double vision can be avoided and comfortable binocular vision can be achieved ...

  3. Diplopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

    Neurology, ophthalmology. Diplopia is the simultaneous perception of two images of a single object that may be displaced horizontally or vertically in relation to each other. [1] Also called double vision, it is a loss of visual focus under regular conditions, and is often voluntary.

  4. Visual system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_system

    Cones are found primarily in the center (or fovea) of the retina. There are three types of cones that differ in the wavelengths of light they absorb; they are usually called short or blue, middle or green, and long or red. Cones mediate day vision and can distinguish color and other features of the visual world at medium and high light levels ...

  5. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    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.

  6. Duplex retina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_retina

    Duplex retina. The distribution of human photoreceptor cells shows how the photopic and scotopic systems exist in parallel, except in the fovea where the photopic system dominates. A duplex retina is a retina consisting of both rod cells and cone cells, [1] which are the photoreceptor cells for two parallel but mostly separate visual systems.

  7. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    In roof prism designs, optically relevant prism angles must be correct within 2 arcseconds (1 / 1,800 of 1 degree) to avoid seeing an obstructive double image. Maintaining such tight production tolerances for the alignment of their optical elements by laser or interference (collimation) at an affordable price point is challenging.

  8. Aberrations of the eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberrations_of_the_eye

    Aberrations of the eye. The eye, like any other optical system, suffers from a number of specific optical aberrations. The optical quality of the eye is limited by optical aberrations, diffraction and scatter. [1] Correction of spherocylindrical refractive errors has been possible for nearly two centuries following Airy's development of methods ...

  9. Color vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision

    Colorless, green, and red photographic filters as imaged by camera. Color vision, a feature of visual perception, is an ability to perceive differences between light composed of different frequencies independently of light intensity. Color perception is a part of the larger visual system and is mediated by a complex process between neurons that ...

  10. Hirschberg test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirschberg_test

    Synonyms. Hirschberg corneal reflex test. Purpose. whether a person has strabismus. In the fields of optometry and ophthalmology, the Hirschberg test, also Hirschberg corneal reflex test, is a screening test that can be used to assess whether a person has strabismus (ocular misalignment).

  11. Double Vision (1971 video) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_Vision_(1971_video)

    Running 14 minutes and 22 seconds, it is a single channel video created with two video cameras fed through a mixer, providing the effect of a photographic double exposure. The video is divided into seven parts, [2] each referencing a phenomenal mode of perception or form of biological sight.
