  2. Monocular - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocular

    Galilean type Soviet-made miniature 2.5 × 17.5 monocular Diagram of a monocular using a Schmidt-Pechan prism: 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.

  3. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    Use contact lenses in place of or as well as eyeglasses. A contact lens rests directly on the surface of the cornea and moves in sync with all eye movements; consequently, a contact lens is always almost perfectly aligned on center with the pupil, and there is never any significant off-axis misalignment between the pupil and the optical center ...

  4. Phoropter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoropter

    This was a device produced in Camden, New Jersey, which contained a battery of convex lenses for each eye, a battery of concave lenses for each eye, and auxiliary lenses which gave it a total power range of +15.75 to -19.75, as well as a Maddox rod and Risley prism for each eye, and a Steven's phorometer.

  5. Dioptre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioptre

    Illustration of the relationship between optical power in dioptres and focal length in metres. A dioptre (British spelling) or diopter (American spelling), symbol dpt, is a unit of measurement with dimension of reciprocal length, equivalent to one reciprocal metre, 1 dpt = 1 m −1.

  6. Optical coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

    Optically coated mirrors and lenses. An optical coating is one or more thin layers of material deposited on an optical component such as a lens, prism or mirror, which alters the way in which the optic reflects and transmits light. These coatings have become a key technology in the field of optics.

  7. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_distance

    Vertex distance is the distance between the back surface of a corrective lens, i.e. glasses (spectacles) or contact lenses, and the front of the cornea. Increasing or decreasing the vertex distance changes the optical properties of the system, by moving the focal point forward or backward, effectively changing the power of the lens relative to ...
