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 ...

The add segment of the lens for near vision is the D-shaped area. A bifocal is a lens with two sections, separated by a line (see image to the right). Generally, the upper part of the lens is used for distance vision, while the lower segment is used for near vision. The area of the lens that caters to near vision is called the add segment.
First workshop of Carl Zeiss in the center of Jena, c. 1847 Carl Zeiss Jena (1910) One of the Stasi's cameras with the special SO-3.5.1 (5/17mm) lens developed by Carl Zeiss, a so-called "needle eye lens", for shooting through keyholes or holes down to 1 mm in diameter 2 historical lenses of Carl Zeiss, Nr. 145077 and Nr. 145078, Tessar 1:4,5 F=5,5cm DRP 142294 (produced before 1910) Carl ...
The cardinal points of a thick lens in air. F, F ′ front and rear focal points; P, P ′ front and rear principal points; V, V ′ front and rear surface vertices. The cardinal points lie on the optical axis of an optical system. Each point is defined by the effect the optical system has on rays that pass through that point, in the paraxial ...
A US airman tests AN/AVS-10 panoramic night-vision goggles in March 2006. GPNVG-18. Night vision devices typically have a limited field of view (FoV); the commonly used AN/PVS-14 has a FoV of 40, [66] less than the 95° monocular horizontal FoV and humans' 190° binocular horizontal FoV. [67] This forces users to turn their heads to compensate.
An Intraocular lens (IOL) is a lens implanted in the eye usually as part of a treatment for cataracts or for correcting other vision problems such as short sightedness and long sightedness; a form of refractive surgery. If the natural lens is left in the eye, the IOL is known as phakic, otherwise it is a pseudophakic lens (or false
A field of view. In first person video games, the field of view or field of vision (abbreviated FOV) is the extent of the observable game world that is seen on the display at any given moment. It is typically measured as an angle, although whether this angle is the horizontal, vertical, or diagonal component of the field of view varies from ...
