Base curve radius (BCR) or simply base curve (BC) is the measure of an important parameter of a lens in optometry. On a spectacle lens, it is the flatter curvature of the front surface. On a contact lens it is the curvature of the back surface and is sometimes referred to as the back central optic radius (BCOR). Typical values for a contact ...

Artist's impression of Leonardo's method for neutralizing the refractive power of the cornea. Leonardo da Vinci is frequently credited with introducing the idea of contact lenses in his 1508 Codex of the eye, Manual D, [9] wherein he described a method of directly altering corneal power by either submerging the head in a bowl of water or wearing a water-filled glass hemisphere over the eye.

1. The Average Fixed Cost curve (AFC) starts from a height and goes on declining continuously as production increases. 2. The Average Variable Cost curve, Average Cost curve and the Marginal Cost curve start from a height, reach the minimum points, then rise sharply and continuously. 3. The Average Fixed Cost curve approaches zero asymptotically.
In 1863, English economist William Stanley Jevons proposed taking the geometric average of the price relative of period t and base period 0. [5] When used as an elementary aggregate, the Jevons index is considered a constant elasticity of substitution index since it allows for product substitution between time periods. [6]
