2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

   Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]

3. Chicken eyeglasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_eyeglasses

   Chicken eyeglasses, also known as chicken specs, chicken goggles, generically as pick guards, and under other names, [2] were small eyeglasses made for chickens intended to prevent feather pecking and cannibalism. They differ from blinders in that they allow the bird to see forward, whereas blinders do not. One variety used rose-colored lenses ...

4. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

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

   Prism spectacles with a single prism perform a relative displacement of the two eyes, thereby correcting eso-, exo, hyper- or hypotropia. In contrast, spectacles with prisms of equal power for both eyes, called yoked prisms (also: conjugate prisms, ambient lenses or performance glasses) shift the visual field of both eyes to the same extent.

5. Adjustable-focus eyeglasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable-focus_eyeglasses

   Adjustable focus eyeglasses are eyeglasses with an adjustable focal length. They compensate for refractive errors (such as presbyopia) by providing variable focusing, allowing users to adjust them for desired distance or prescription, or both. Current bifocals and progressive lenses are static, in that the user has to change their eye position ...

6. Belay glasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belay_glasses

   The prismatic lenses of the belay glasses are arranged so as to bend light from above through total internal reflection into the observer's eye, allowing the belayer to observe the climber while maintaining a comfortable head/neck position. The design based on the eyeglasses frame provides for a split field of vision: the peripheral field ...

   Try as manufacturers might, attempts at autostereoscopic (glasses-free) TV have been subpar; existing tech typically makes for messy images due to ghosting, only provides a 3D effect if you're ...
