2. Fresnel lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_lens

   In some lenses, the curved surfaces are replaced with flat surfaces, with a different angle in each section. Such a lens can be regarded as an array of prisms arranged in a circular fashion with steeper prisms on the edges and a flat or slightly convex center. In the first (and largest) Fresnel lenses, each section was actually a separate prism.

3. Fixation disparity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_disparity

   Eye glasses with an included prism power is the optical method to reduce a fixation disparity. Different procedures have been proposed to determine the required amount of prism for the individual. Based on prism-FD curves (Fig. 3b), one can find the aligning prism sP 0 that nullifies the naturally prevailing fixation disparity sFD 0. This test ...

4. Halo (optical phenomenon) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_(optical_phenomenon)

   Light is reflected and refracted by the ice crystals and may split into colors because of dispersion. The crystals behave like prisms and mirrors, refracting and reflecting light between their faces, sending shafts of light in particular directions.

5. Stereoscopy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscopy

   Stereoscopy creates the illusion of three-dimensional depth from a pair of two-dimensional images. [5] Human vision, including the perception of depth, is a complex process, which only begins with the acquisition of visual information taken in through the eyes; much processing ensues within the brain, as it strives to make sense of the raw information.

6. Bagolini Striated Glasses Test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bagolini_Striated_Glasses_Test

   The glasses are placed in the trial frames with the striations vertical, giving rise to two horizontal line images when viewing a spotlight. If the patient has a vertical deviation, the lines will be seen one above the other. If there is little or no vertical separation, vertical prism can be used to separate the lines.

7. Splitting (psychology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splitting_(psychology)

   Splitting (also called binary thinking, black-and-white thinking, all-or-nothing thinking, or thinking in extremes) is the failure in a person's thinking to bring together the dichotomy of both perceived positive and negative qualities of something into a cohesive, realistic whole.
