  2. History of optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_optics

    The early writers discussed here treated vision more as a geometrical than as a physical, physiological, or psychological problem. The first known author of a treatise on geometrical optics was the geometer Euclid (c. 325 BC–265 BC).

  3. Cyclotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotropia

    Cyclotropia is a form of strabismus in which, compared to the correct positioning of the eyes, there is a torsion of one eye (or both) about the eye's visual axis. . Consequently, the visual fields of the two eyes appear tilted relative t

  4. Adjustable-focus eyeglasses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable-focus_eyeglasses

    Adjustable focus lenses, like single-focus lenses, also reduce image-jump and spatial distortion in the field of view associated with traditional multi-focal lenses. Additionally, the ideal near-vision correction can be achieved with precision, because the variable lenses emulate the focusing action of the youthful (non-presbyopic) eye.

  5. Upside down goggles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upside_down_goggles

    Upside down goggles can be used to demonstrate human adaptation to inverted vision, and as a method of preventing motion sickness. [2] Hubert Dolezal recommended using upside down goggles for "nausea adaptation" for space travel. [3] They can also be used to train spatial abilities and possibly cognitive functions.

  6. Maddox rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_rod

    The strength of the prism is increased until the streak of the light passes through the centre of the prism, as the strength of the prism indicates the amount of deviation present. The Maddox rod is a handheld instrument composed of red parallel plano convex cylinder lens , which refracts light rays so that a point source of light is seen as a ...

  7. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    In this example the first eye, with a −1.00 diopter prescription, is the stronger eye, needing only slight correction to sharpen the image formed, and hence a thin spectacle lens. The second eye, with a −4.00 diopter prescription, is the weaker eye, needing moderate correction to sharpen the image formed, and hence a moderately thick ...

  8. Optical coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

    The unwanted interference effects are suppressed by vapour-depositing a special dielectric coating known as a phase-compensating coating on the roof surfaces of the roof prism. These phase-correction coating or P-coating on the roof surfaces was developed in 1988 by Adolf Weyrauch at Carl Zeiss [6] Other manufacturers followed soon, and since ...

  9. Astigmatism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astigmatism

    In with-the-rule astigmatism, the eye has too much "plus" cylinder in the horizontal axis relative to the vertical axis (i.e., the eye is too "steep" along the vertical meridian relative to the horizontal meridian). Vertical beams of light focus in front to horizontal beams of light, in the eye.
