2. Suppression (eye) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suppression_(eye)

   Suppression (eye) Suppression of an eye is a subconscious adaptation by a person's brain to eliminate the symptoms of disorders of binocular vision such as strabismus, convergence insufficiency and aniseikonia. The brain can eliminate double vision by ignoring all or part of the image of one of the eyes. The area of a person's visual field that ...

3. Ocular myasthenia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_myasthenia

   Ocular myasthenia gravis (MG) is a disease of the neuromuscular junction resulting in hallmark variability in muscle weakness and fatigability. MG is an autoimmune disease where anomalous antibodies are produced against the naturally occurring acetylcholine receptors in voluntary muscles. MG may be limited to the muscles of the eye (ocular MG ...

4. Ray transfer matrix analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_transfer_matrix_analysis

   At any point along the optical train an optical axis is defined corresponding to a central ray; that central ray is propagated to define the optical axis further in the optical train which need not be in the same physical direction (such as when bent by a prism or mirror).

5. Roof prism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roof_prism

   Roof prism. A roof pentaprism used in Single-lens reflex cameras; the lower right face is the roof ( dach ). A roof prism, also called a Dachkanten prism or Dach prism (from German: Dachkante, lit. "roof edge"), is a reflective prism containing a section where two faces meet at a 90° angle, resembling the roof of a building and thus the name.

6. 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). Euclid began his study of optics as he began his study of geometry, with a set of self-evident axioms.

7. Dispersion (optics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(optics)

   Dispersion (optics) In a dispersive prism, material dispersion (a wavelength -dependent refractive index) causes different colors to refract at different angles, splitting white light into a spectrum. In optics and in wave propagation in general, dispersion is the phenomenon in which the phase velocity of a wave depends on its frequency; [1 ...
