2. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

   Lenses sold in the US must pass the Food and Drug Administration ball-drop impact test, and depending on needed index these seem to currently have "best in class" Abbe vs Index ( N d): Glass (2× weight of plastics) or CR-39 (2 mm vs. 1.5 mm thickness typical on newer materials) 58 @ 1.5, Sola Spectralite (47 @ 1.53), Sola Finalite (43 @ 1.6 ...

3. Adjustable-focus eyeglasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable-focus_eyeglasses

   Distance vision corrections are made by re-adjusting the lens for distance, instead of by tilting and/or rotating the head to view object through the best part of the lens for the distance. Adjustable focus lenses, like single-focus lenses, also reduce image-jump and spatial distortion in the field of view associated with traditional multi ...

4. Effects of long-term contact lens wear on the cornea - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_long-term...

   The industry standard is to report Dk/t values measuring lens thickness at the center of a -3.00 D lens. [12] [13] The higher a contact lens wearer's prescription is, the thicker their lens is overall, which decreases Dk/t. Minus lenses are thicker away from the center, while plus lenses are thicker at the center, which decreases Dk/t in those ...

5. 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 ...

6. Thin lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_lens

   A lens may be considered a thin lens if its thickness is much less than the radii of curvature of its surfaces (d ≪ | R 1 | and d ≪ | R 2 |).. In optics, a thin lens is a lens with a thickness (distance along the optical axis between the two surfaces of the lens) that is negligible compared to the radii of curvature of the lens surfaces.

7. Aspheric lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspheric_lens

   Moritz von Rohr is usually credited with the design of the first aspheric lenses for eyeglasses. He invented the eyeglass lens designs that became the Zeiss Punktal lenses. 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 ...
