  2. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_distance

    Vertex distance is the distance between the back surface of a corrective lens, i.e. glasses (spectacles) or contact lenses, and the front of the cornea. Increasing or decreasing the vertex distance changes the optical properties of the system, by moving the focal point forward or backward, effectively changing the power of the lens relative to ...

  3. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

    BVD Back vertex distance is the distance between the back of the spectacle lens and the front of the cornea (the front surface of the eye). This is significant in higher prescriptions (usually beyond ±4.00D) as slight changes in the vertex distance for in this range can cause a power to be delivered to the eye other than what was prescribed.

  4. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    In glasses with powers beyond ±4.00D, the vertex distance can affect the effective power of the glasses. [4] A shorter vertex distance can expand the field of view, but if the vertex distance is too small, the eyelashes will come into contact with the back of the lens, smudging the lens and causing annoyance for the wearer.

    A construction loan only finances the construction of the home. Once the home is built, you’ll need to either repay the loan in full or take out a separate mortgage. A construction-to-permanent ...

  7. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    F = back vertex power (in 1/metres), (essentially, the prescription for the lens, quoted in diopters). If the difference between the eyes is up to 3 diopters, iseikonic lenses can compensate. At a difference of 3 diopters the lenses would however be very visibly different—one lens would need to be at least 3 mm thicker and have a base curve ...

  8. Eye relief - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_relief

    The eye relief of an optical instrument (such as a telescope, a microscope, or binoculars) is the distance from the last surface of an eyepiece within which the user's eye can obtain the full viewing angle. If a viewer's eye is outside this distance, a reduced field of view will be obtained.

  9. Radius of curvature (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    where the optic axis is presumed to lie in the z direction, and () is the sag—the z-component of the displacement of the surface from the vertex, at distance from the axis. If α 1 {\displaystyle \alpha _{1}} and α 2 {\displaystyle \alpha _{2}} are zero, then R {\displaystyle R} is the radius of curvature and K {\displaystyle K} is the conic ...
