Exam 3 Flashcards
A lens material has an Abbe value of 58. What is the dispersive power?
0.017
w = 1/v = 1/58 = 0.017
A lens material with a good optical quality has a high _______ and a low ________ power
Abbe Value
Dispersive
By using three different wavelengths, which correspond to Fraunhofer lines d, C, and F, different refractive indices for a lens material are measured: Nd=1.40, Nc=1.39, Nf=1.41. What is the Abbe number of the lens material?
20
v=.4/1.41-1.39
Which lens materials has the highest amount of Chromatic Aberration?
Polycarbonate
What has the highest Abbe value?
CR-39 = 58
Transverse Chromatic Aberration occurs when a lens expresses different ________ power value for different wavelengths.
Prismatic
Which color bends less, in regards to Transverse Chromatic Aberration?
Red
Indigo bends more
What is the LCA of a +20.00D lens with an Abbe number 58?
0.3448
LCA = F/V = +20.00/58 = 0.3448
What is the TCA of a +20.00D lens with an Abbe number of 58, 10 mm from its center?
0.3448
P=d x F = 1cm x 20D = 20
TCA = P/V = 20/58 = 0.3448
A +20.00D lens has a dispersive power of 0.05. What is the LCA?
+1.00D
w=1/v = 1/0.05 = 20 LCA = F/V = 20/20 = +1.00D
An achromatic doublet has a focal power of +2.00D. The first lens has an Abbe Number of 60. The second lens has an Abbe number of 40. What is the focal power of the first lens?
+6.00D
F1 =(V1/V1-V2)F
60/60-40 = 60/20 = 3 x 2 = 6
What is the purpose of hybrid lenses in Low vision optics?
Reduce Chromatic Abberation
What does not have chromatic abberation?
convex mirror
What are the 2 strategies for limiting spherical aberration in spectacles lens?
Best form and Aspheric
Pick the following two answer that are correct:
1) Negative Spherical Abberation has absolute focal power and the power increases away from the lens center
2) Positive Spherical Abberation the absolute focal power increases away from the lens center
3) Paraxial image point is located closer towards the lens than non-paraxial
4) Non paraxial image point is located close toward the lens than the paraxial image point
2) Positive Spherical Abberation the absolute focal power increases away from the lens center
4) Non paraxial image point is located close toward the lens than the paraxial image point
Note: Tangential is closer = Non-paraxial image point
Sagittal is further from the image point
True or False, In spectacle lens the best form lens must have a radii that is spherical?
True
Consider image formation through a lens. The paraxial image point is 100 cm behind the lens. The non-paraxial image is 90cm behind the lens? Calculate the LSA.
+0.11
LSA = 1/ln’ - 1/l’
=1/90 - 1/100 = 0.0011 =0.11D
