  2. Fraser spiral illusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraser_spiral_illusion

    The visual distortion is produced by combining a regular line pattern (the circles) with misaligned parts (the differently colored strands). [2] Zöllner's illusion and the café wall illusion are based on a similar principle, like many other visual effects, in which a sequence of tilted elements causes the eye to perceive phantom twists and ...

  3. Intraocular muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_muscles

    Intrinsic ocular muscles [1] or intraocular muscles [2] are muscles of the inside of the eye structure. The intraocular muscles are responsible for the protraction and retraction of the eyelids and reaction to light and pupil accommodation. [2] They're different to the extraocular muscles that are outside of the eye and control the external ...

  4. Distortion (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    In geometric optics, distortion is a deviation from rectilinear projection; a projection in which straight lines in a scene remain straight in an image.It is a form of optical aberration that may be distinguished from other aberrations such as spherical aberration, coma, chromatic aberration, field curvature, and astigmatism in a sense that these impact the image sharpness without changing an ...

  5. Aberrations of the eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberrations_of_the_eye

    The eye, like any other optical system, suffers from a number of specific optical aberrations. The optical quality of the eye is limited by optical aberrations, diffraction and scatter . [ 1 ] Correction of spherocylindrical refractive errors has been possible for nearly two centuries following Airy's development of methods to measure and ...

  6. Human eye - Wikipedia

    The six muscles are four recti muscles – the lateral rectus, the medial rectus, the inferior rectus, and the superior rectus, and two oblique muscles the inferior oblique, and the superior oblique. The seventh muscle is the levator palpebrae superioris muscle .

  7. Extraocular muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extraocular_muscles

    The extraocular muscles, or extrinsic ocular muscles, are the seven extrinsic muscles of the eye in humans and other animals. [1] Six of the extraocular muscles, the four recti muscles, and the superior and inferior oblique muscles, control movement of the eye. The other muscle, the levator palpebrae superioris, controls eyelid elevation.

  8. Binocular vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_vision

    The position of each eye in its orbit is controlled by six extraocular muscles. Slight differences in the length or insertion position or strength of the same muscles in the two eyes can lead to a tendency for one eye to drift to a different position in its orbit from the other, especially when one is tired. This is known as phoria.

  9. Optical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_aberration

    The reverse, in which the perimeter is magnified more than the center, is known as "pincushion distortion" (figure 3b). This effect is called lens distortion or image distortion, and there are algorithms to correct it. Systems free of distortion are called orthoscopic (orthos, right, skopein to look) or rectilinear (straight lines). Figure 4
