Optics Course
Master clinical optics for ophthalmology: model the eye as a thin lens, quantify refractive errors, design spectacle and contact lens corrections, and interpret diopters with confidence using clear formulas, ray diagrams, and realistic worked cases.

What Will I Learn?
This concise Optics Course builds practical skills for analyzing the eye as a thin lens system, interpreting refractive errors in diopters, and linking focal shifts to myopia and hyperopia. Through clear formulas, numeric examples, and correction design for spectacles and contacts, you learn to compute lens powers, account for vertex distance, and recognize when simple models no longer match real clinical situations.
