2. Anti-reflective coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-reflective_coating

   Uncoated glasses lens (top) versus lens with anti-reflective coating. The reflection from the coated lens is tinted because the coating works better at some wavelengths than others. An antireflective , antiglare or anti-reflection ( AR ) coating is a type of optical coating applied to the surface of lenses , other optical elements, and ...

3. Optical coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

   One type of optical coating is an anti-reflective coating, which reduces unwanted reflections from surfaces, and is commonly used on spectacle and camera lenses. Another type is the high-reflector coating , which can be used to produce mirrors that reflect greater than 99.99% of the light that falls on them.

4. Mirrored sunglasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirrored_sunglasses

   Mirrored sunglasses are sunglasses with a reflective optical coating (called a mirror coating or flash coating) on the outside of the lenses to make them appear like small mirrors. The lenses typically give the wearer's vision a brown or grey tint. The mirror coating decreases the amount of light passing through the tinted lens by a further 10 ...

5. Wray (lenses) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wray_(lenses)

   Wray (Optical Works) Ltd. was a British camera and lens manufacturer based in Ashgrove Road, Bromley, Kent, UK. It operated from 1850 to 1971, making lenses for cameras, photographic enlargers, reconnaissance, mapping, microchip replication, and an anamorphic projection system for cinemas. It also made binoculars.

6. Low-dispersion glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-dispersion_glass

   The shallow depth of field provided by a telephoto lens also allows the subject of the photography to stand out better against the background. [11] Infrared corrected special-low-dispersion glass also has benefits to CCTV cameras. The low chromatic aberration of SLD glass allows the lens to always stay in focus, from visible light to infrared. [12]

7. Image-stabilized binoculars - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image-stabilized_binoculars

   Image-stabilized binoculars are binoculars that have a mechanism for decreasing the apparent motion of the view due to binocular movement. [1] Such binoculars are designed to minimize image shaking in hand-held applications. Higher-power binoculars magnify the image more, but the image shift is also increased. This means that even minor hand ...

8. Field flattener lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_Flattener_Lens

   Field flattener lens is a type of lens used in modern binocular designs [a] and in astronomic telescopes to improve edge sharpness. Field flattener lenses counteract the Petzval field curvature of an optical system, mitigating the field-angle dependence of the focal length of a system.

9. Eye relief - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_relief

   Since this property affects the available eye relief of any binocular or other optics used, (telescopes, microscopes, etc.) it should be borne in mind at the eye testing stage. The matter should be discussed with the optician, though the only realistic way of testing the comfort is to try the optical device while wearing the usual spectacles.
