What will I learn?
Gain mastery over converging and diverging lenses through this targeted course that connects essential formulas, ray tracing techniques, and practical prescription applications. You will explore lens makers’ and thin-lens equations, sign conventions, and optical power, applying them to precise ray descriptions, material selection, high-index lenses, and clinical interpretations to communicate effectively, verify calculations, and decide confidently on lenses.
