  2. Slit lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slit_lamp

    Eye examination with the aid of a slit lamp. Side view of a slit lamp machine. Cataract in human eye: magnified view seen on examination with the slit lamp. In ophthalmology and optometry, a slit lamp is an instrument consisting of a high-intensity light source that can be focused to shine a thin sheet of light into the eye.

  3. Anterior segment of eyeball - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_segment_of_eyeball

    The anterior segment or anterior cavity [1] is the front third of the eye that includes the structures in front of the vitreous humour: the cornea, iris, ciliary body, and lens. [2] [3] Within the anterior segment are two fluid-filled spaces: the anterior chamber between the posterior surface of the cornea (i.e. the corneal endothelium) and the ...

    a 26 gauge needle bent twice used for incising the anterior capsule of the lens in lens extraction Wire vectis: a loop of wire attached to a stack used to extract cataract affected lenses Irrigating vectis: a small hollow instrument with a used to introduce fluid into the anterior chamber to raise its pressure to aid cataract extraction [2] Canula

  5. Zeiss formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeiss_formula

    The CoC size of 0.025 mm for this format appears in Jacobson's Photographic Lenses Tutorial, [1] and the 1730 in his 1996 Photographic Lenses FAQ. [2] Jacobson derived the 0.025 mm CoC number from analysis of the Zeiss Triotar lens DoF markings on the Rollei B35 (see photo). The manual for the Rollei B35 also states 0.025 mm CoC for its ...

  6. Aspheric lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspheric_lens

    The world's first commercial, mass-produced aspheric lens element was manufactured by Elgeet for use in the Golden Navitar 12 mm f /1.2 normal lens for use on 16 mm movie cameras in 1956. [12] This lens received a great deal of industry acclaim during its day. The aspheric elements were created by the use of a membrane polishing technique.

  7. Refractive error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_error

    In order to see a clear image, the eye must focus rays of light on to the light-sensing part of the eye – the retina, which is located in the back of the eye.This focusing – called refraction – is performed mainly by the cornea and the lens, which are located at the front of the eye, the anterior segment.

  8. Globe (human eye) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globe_(human_eye)

    The globe of the eye, or bulbus oculi, is the frontmost sensory organ of the human ocular system, going from the cornea at the front, to the anterior part of the optic nerve at the back. More simply, the eyeball itself, as well as the ganglion cells in the retina that eventually transmit visual signals through the optic nerve. [ 1 ]

  9. Cardinal point (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    For a single lens surrounded by a medium of refractive index n = 1, the locations of the principal points H and H ′ with respect to the respective lens vertices are given by the formulas = ′ = (), where f is the focal length of the lens, d is its thickness, and r 1 and r 2 are the radii of curvature of its surfaces. Positive signs indicate ...
