  2. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    Corrective lens. A corrective lens is a transmissive optical device that is worn on the eye to improve visual perception. The most common use is to treat refractive errors: myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Glasses or "spectacles" are worn on the face a short distance in front of the eye.

  3. Progressive lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressive_lens

    Progressive lenses are corrective lenses used in eyeglasses to correct presbyopia and other disorders of accommodation. They are characterised by a gradient of increasing lens power, added to the wearer's correction for the other refractive errors. The gradient starts at the wearer's distance prescription at the top of the lens and reaches a ...

  4. Gradient-index optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient-index_optics

    Gradient-index ( GRIN) optics is the branch of optics covering optical effects produced by a gradient of the refractive index of a material. Such gradual variation can be used to produce lenses with flat surfaces, or lenses that do not have the aberrations typical of traditional spherical lenses. Gradient-index lenses may have a refraction ...

  5. Anti-reflective coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-reflective_coating

    Many anti-reflection lenses include an additional coating that repels water and grease, making them easier to keep clean. Anti-reflection coatings are particularly suited to high-index lenses, as these reflect more light without the coating than a lower-index lens (a consequence of the Fresnel equations). It is also generally easier and cheaper ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_soft_contact_lens...

    In the US market, soft contact lenses are approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. [2] The American Optometric Association published a contact lens comparison chart called Advantages and Disadvantages of Various Types of Contact Lenses on the differences between them. [3] These include: soft contact lenses; rigid gas-permeable (RGP ...

  7. Dark-field microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark-field_microscopy

    Dark-field microscopy (also called dark-ground microscopy) describes microscopy methods, in both light and electron microscopy, which exclude the unscattered beam from the image. Consequently, the field around the specimen (i.e., where there is no specimen to scatter the beam) is generally dark. In optical microscopes a darkfield condenser lens ...
