2. Intraocular lens power calculation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intraocular_lens_power...

   The aim of an accurate intraocular lens power calculation is to provide an intraocular lens (IOL) that fits the specific needs and desires of the individual patient. The development of better instrumentation for measuring the eye's axial length (AL) and the use of more precise mathematical formulas to perform the appropriate calculations have significantly improved the accuracy with which the ...

6. Optical power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_power

   Converging lenses have positive optical power, while diverging lenses have negative power. When a lens is immersed in a refractive medium, its optical power and focal length change. For two or more thin lenses close together, the optical power of the combined lenses is approximately equal to the sum of the optical powers of each lens: P = P 1 ...

7. Jackson cross cylinder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson_cross_cylinder

   This lens consisted of two cylindrical lenses, one plano-convex and one plano-concave, which be rotated in opposite directions. In 1887 Edward Jackson described the use of modified Stokes' lens in detecting astigmatism, and in 1907 he described the determination of the axis of a correcting cylinder in astigmatism using a cross cylinder.
