Positive Power Lens
RO el = infinity
–> RI el’ = f’
Positive Power Lens
RO: el = f
–> RI: el’ = infinity
Collimating Lens!!!!!
Negative Power Lens
RO: el = infinity
–> VI: el’ = f’
Negative Power Lens
VO: el = f
–> RI: el’ = infinity
Positive Power Lens
RO: el = 2f
–> RI: el’ = 2f’
Negative Power Lens
VO: el = 2f
–> VI: el’ = 2f’
A Lens clock measures S/focal power, but displays S/focal power
Measures s, but displaces focal power
Lens clock red
Concave surface, aka MINUS power
Lens clock black
Convex surface, aka PLUS power
