2. Magnification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnification

   The maximum angular magnification (compared to the naked eye) of a magnifying glass depends on how the glass and the object are held, relative to the eye. If the lens is held at a distance from the object such that its front focal point is on the object being viewed, the relaxed eye (focused to infinity) can view the image with angular ...

3. Magnifying glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnifying_glass

   A typical magnifying glass might have a focal length of 25 cm, corresponding to an optical power of 4 dioptres. Such a magnifier would be sold as a "2×" magnifier. In actual use, an observer with "typical" eyes would obtain a magnifying power between 1 and 2, depending on where lens is held.

4. Dioptre - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioptre

   The magnifying power V of a simple magnifying glass is related to its optical power φ by V = 0.25 m × φ + 1 {\displaystyle V=0.25\ \mathrm {m} \times \varphi +1} . This is approximately the magnification observed when a person with normal vision holds the magnifying glass close to his or her eye.

5. Coddington magnifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coddington_magnifier

   A Coddington magnifier is a magnifying glass consisting of a single very thick lens with a central deep groove diaphragm at the equator, thus limiting the rays to those close to the axis, which minimizes spherical aberration. This allows for greater magnification than a conventional magnifying glass, typically 10× up to 20×. Most single lens ...

6. Optical telescope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_telescope

   The Large Binocular Telescope at the Mount Graham International Observatory in Arizona uses two curved mirrors to gather light. An optical telescope is a telescope that gathers and focuses light mainly from the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, to create a magnified image for direct visual inspection, to make a photograph, or to collect data through electronic image sensors.
