  2. Achromatic lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Achromatic_lens

    Uses an equiconvex crown glass lens (i.e. R 1 > 0 with −R 1 = R 2) and a complementary-curved second flint glass lens (with R 3 = R 2). The back of the flint glass lens is flat ( R 4 = ∞). A Littrow doublet can produce a ghost image between R 2 and R 3 because the lens surfaces of the two lenses have the same radii.

  3. Diplopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

    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. Talk:Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Prism_correction

    1. How about an illustration of the difference that prismatic lenses make in a user's view over that of regular lenses? 2. How about an illustration to visually explain what it meant by the "prism dioptres" section? 3. Can prismatic lenses be included with bifocals, progressive lenses, polarizing, tinting, Crizol lenses, etc? 4.

  5. 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 ...

  6. Esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esotropia

    Esotropia (from Greek eso 'inward' and trope 'a turning' [1]) is a form of strabismus in which one or both eyes turn inward. The condition can be constantly present, or occur intermittently, and can give the affected individual a "cross-eyed" appearance. [2]

  7. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    8×42 roof prism binoculars with rainguard and opened tethered lens caps. Binoculars or field glasses are two refracting telescopes mounted side-by-side and aligned to point in the same direction, allowing the viewer to use both eyes (binocular vision) when viewing distant objects.

  8. Porro prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porro_prism

    Porro prisms are most often used in pairs, forming a double Porro prism. A second prism rotated 90° with respect to the first, is placed such that light will traverse both prisms. The net effect of the prism system is a beam parallel to but displaced from its original direction, with the image rotated 180°.

  9. Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_Optics_Space...

    One potential option was to insert corrective optics, lenses or mirrors in the telescope tube between the primary mirror and the secondary reflector. However the tube was too narrow for even the smallest astronaut to slither down it, leading to a search for a means of inserting the required corrective components into the tube.
