2. Cylindrical lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylindrical_lens

   Cylindrical lenses. A cylindrical lens is a lens which focuses light into a line instead of a point as a spherical lens would. The curved face or faces of a cylindrical lens are sections of a cylinder, and focus the image passing through it into a line parallel to intersection of the surface of the lens and a plane tangent to it along the cylinder's axis.

3. Photographic lens design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photographic_lens_design

   Very-large-aperture lenses designed to be useful in very low light conditions with apertures ranging from f/1.2 to f/0.9 are generally restricted to lenses of standard focal length because of the size and weight problems that would be encountered in telephoto lenses and the difficulty of building a very wide aperture wide angle lens with the ...

   This can be done, for example, with ring tools. Next, the lens surface is polished to its final form. Typically this is done by lapping—rotating and rubbing the rough lens surface against a tool with the desired surface shape, with a mixture of abrasives and fluid in between. Typically a carved pitch tool is used to polish the surface of a lens.

5. Subjective refraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_refraction

   3) REFINE CYLINDER AXIS Once again the patient's fixation is directed to a round letter on the chart. The 0.50JCC is presented straddling the axis of the cylinder lens in the trial frames. [6] The patient is shown the lens in both flip positions. Both options may be blurry, the patient is asked to indicate which is clearer of the two. [6]

6. Camera lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camera_lens

   Different kinds of camera lenses, including wide angle, telephoto and speciality. A camera lens (also known as photographic lens or photographic objective) is an optical lens or assembly of lenses (compound lens) used in conjunction with a camera body and mechanism to make images of objects either on photographic film or on other media capable of storing an image chemically or electronically.

7. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

   A prescription of −1.00 +0.25 × 180 describes a lens that has a horizontal power of −1.00 D and a vertical power of −0.75 D. Only ophthalmologists write prescriptions in + cylinder. An optometrist would write a prescription in - (minus) cylinder. All spectacle and contact lenses would be made in minus cylinder.

8. Lensmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lensmeter

   The parameters appraised by a lensmeter are the values specified by an ophthalmologist or optometrist on the patient's prescription: sphere, cylinder, axis, add, and in some cases, prism. The lensmeter is also used to check the accuracy of progressive lenses , and is often capable of marking the lens center and various other measurements ...

9. Flange focal distance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flange_focal_distance

   Diagram illustrating the flange focal length of an SLR–type and a mirrorless–type camera. For an interchangeable lens camera, the flange focal distance (FFD) (also known as the flange-to-film distance, flange focal depth, flange back distance (FBD), flange focal length (FFL), back focus [1] or register, depending on the usage and source) of a lens mount system is the distance from the ...
