  2. List of soft contact lens materials - Wikipedia

    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 ...

  3. CR-39 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CR-39

    CR-39 is about half the weight of glass with an index of refraction only slightly lower than that of crown glass, and its high Abbe number yields low chromatic aberration, altogether making it an advantageous material for eyeglasses and sunglasses. A wide range of colors can be achieved by dyeing of the surface or the bulk of the material.

  4. Crown glass (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_glass_(optics)

    Crown glass is a type of optical glass used in lenses and other optical components. It has relatively low refractive index (≈1.52) and low dispersion (with Abbe numbers between 50 and 85). Crown glass is produced from alkali-lime silicates containing approximately 10% potassium oxide and is one of the earliest low dispersion glasses.

  5. Optical glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_glass

    Optical glass refers to a quality of glass suitable for the manufacture of optical systems such as optical lenses, prisms or mirrors.Unlike window glass or crystal, whose formula is adapted to the desired aesthetic effect, optical glass contains additives designed to modify certain optical or mechanical properties of the glass: refractive index, dispersion, transmittance, thermal expansion and ...

  6. Low-dispersion glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-dispersion_glass

    Comparison of visible wavelength dispersion (i.e., the distance between foci for blue and red) of crown and flint glass converging lenses. Low-dispersion glass (LD glass) is a type of glass with reduced chromatic aberration, meaning the refractive index does not change as strongly with different wavelengths of light.

  7. Optical coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

    The other major type of optical coating is the dielectric coating (i.e. using materials with a different refractive index to the substrate). These are constructed from thin layers of materials such as magnesium fluoride, calcium fluoride, and various metal oxides, which are deposited onto the optical substrate. By careful choice of the exact ...
