   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

   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. Pinhole glasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_glasses

   Pinhole glasses, also known as stenopeic glasses, are eyeglasses with a series of pinhole-sized perforations filling an opaque sheet of plastic in place of each lens. Similar to the workings of a pinhole camera, each perforation allows only a very narrow beam of light to enter the eye which reduces the size of the circle of confusion on the ...

6. 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 ...

7. Color blind glasses - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_blind_glasses
