  2. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    There are binoculars designed specifically for civilian and military use under harsh environmental conditions at sea. Hand held models will be 5× to 8× magnification, but with very large prism sets combined with eyepieces designed to give generous eye relief.

    Prisms: These flip the image right side up within a lens; without them, images would come through upside down. Prisms also shorten the optical path, resulting in closer images.

  4. Fresnel lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_lens

    A Fresnel lens ( / ˈfreɪnɛl, - nəl / FRAY-nel, -⁠nəl; / ˈfrɛnɛl, - əl / FREN-el, -⁠əl; or / freɪˈnɛl / fray-NEL [1]) is a type of composite compact lens which reduces the amount of material required compared to a conventional lens by dividing the lens into a set of concentric annular sections.

  5. Loupe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loupe

    Diagram of a single lens loupe. Three basic types of loupes exist: Simple lenses, generally used for low-magnification designs because of high optical aberration. Compound lenses, generally used for higher magnifications to control optical aberration. Prismatic, multiple lenses with prisms. [2]

  6. Monocular - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocular

    1 – Objective lens 2 – Schmidt-Pechan prism 3 – Eyepiece. A monocular is a compact refracting telescope used to magnify images of distant objects, typically using an optical prism to ensure an erect image, instead of using relay lenses like most telescopic sights.

  7. History of optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_optics

    Like Hero, Claudius Ptolemy in his second-century Optics considered the visual rays as proceeding from the eye to the object seen, but, unlike Hero, considered that the visual rays were not discrete lines, but formed a continuous cone. Optics documents Ptolemy's studies of reflection and refraction. [7]
