  2. Instrument myopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrument_myopia

    A microscope might force the person to use only one eye, it presents the person with a limited field of view, it presents a magnified view, and it allows the person to adjust the focus of the instrument for any viewing distance. Ideally, the person will choose a focus adjustment on the instrument that allows the eyes to have relaxed ...

  3. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    A compound microscope uses a lens close to the object being viewed to collect light (called the objective lens), which focuses a real image of the object inside the microscope (image 1). That image is then magnified by a second lens or group of lenses (called the eyepiece ) that gives the viewer an enlarged inverted virtual image of the object ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling_microscope

    A traveling microscope. E—eyepiece, O—objective, K—knob for focusing, V—vernier, R—rails, S—screw for fine position adjustment. A travelling microscope is an instrument for measuring length with a resolution typically in the order of 0.01mm.

  6. Eyepiece - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyepiece

    The objective lens or mirror collects light from an object or sample and brings it to focus creating an image of the object. The eyepiece is placed near the focal point of the objective to magnify this image to the eyes. (The eyepiece and the eye together make an image of the image created by the objective, on the retina of the eye.)

  7. Eye relief - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_relief

    The eye relief of an optical instrument (such as a telescope, a microscope, or binoculars) is the distance from the last surface of an eyepiece within which the user's eye can obtain the full viewing angle. If a viewer's eye is outside this distance, a reduced field of view will be obtained.

  8. Entoptic phenomenon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entoptic_phenomenon

    The Purkinje tree is an image of the retinal blood vessels in one's own eye, first described by PurkynÄ› in 1823. It can be seen by shining the beam of a small bright light through the pupil from the periphery of a subject's vision. This results in an image of the light being focused on the periphery of the retina.

  9. 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.
