  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Yoked prism can move the image away from primary gaze without the need for a constant head tilt or turn. [1] Prism correction is measured in prism dioptres. A prescription that specifies prism correction will also specify the "base". The base is the thickest part of the lens and is opposite from the apex.

  3. Delta prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_prism

    A delta prism is an optical element providing a compact folded form of the Dove prism. [1] When used in the normal orientation, the prism inverts the image (that is, rotates it 180 degrees); rotating the orientation results in image rotation to other arbitrary angles. The base surface must be fabricated with a mirror coating to make it reflective.

  4. Chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_progressive...

    The most common strabismus finding is large angle exotropia which can be treated by maximal bilateral eye surgery, but due to the progressive nature of the disease, strabismus may recur. [14] Those that have diplopia as a result of asymmetric ophthalmoplegia may be corrected with prisms or with surgery to create a better alignment of the eyes.

  5. Deck prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deck_prism

    The deck prism laid flush into the deck, the glass prism refracted and dispersed natural light into the space below from a small deck opening without weakening the planks or becoming a fire hazard. 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 ...

  6. RAF Eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Eye

    Eye was a standard Class A airfield for heavy bombers. The U.S. Army 829th Engineer Battalion began construction of this WWII air base in September 1942, with the 827th Battalion arriving that December to assist. The 859th Battalion arrived in May of the following year when the 829th Battalion left.

  7. Base (topology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base_(topology)

    In mathematics, a base (or basis; pl.: bases) for the topology τ of a topological space (X, τ) is a family of open subsets of X such that every open set of the topology is equal to the union of some sub-family of .

  8. Uppendahl prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uppendahl_prism

    An Uppendahl prism is an erecting prism, i.e. a special reflection prism that is used to invert an image (rotation by 180°). The erecting system consists of three partial prisms made of optical glass with a high refractive index cemented together to form a symmetric assembly and is used in microscopy as well as in binoculars technology.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niger_Air_Base_201

    On 7 July 2024, the U.S. completed withdrawal of all troops from Air Base 101, while 500 remaining troops left Air Base 201 on 5 August. [18] [19] On 6 August 2024, the US officially returned Air Base 201 to Nigerien control. [20] [21]
