Lensmaker’s Equation
f is the focal length of the lens,
n is the refractive index of the lens material,
R1 is the radius of curvature of the lens surface closest to the light source,
R2 is the radius of curvature of the lens surface farthest from the light source,
d is the thickness of the lens (the distance along the lens axis between the two surface vertices).

• Rule : Image formed by first lens is the object for the second lens.
• Main Rays : Ray passing through focus emerges parallel to optical axis.
Ray through optical center passes un-deviated.
• Magnification:

Exercises: What is the combined focal length of the system?
What is the combined focal length if d = 0?

of both lens systems
• Sizes of object and image do not change as they are translated.
• However, focus does change as in any lens.

Common lens related Issues
Vignetting

B
L1
A
More light passes through lens L3 for scene point A than scene point B
Results in spatially non-uniform brightness (in the periphery of the image)
Lens Vignetting
• Usually brighter at the center and darker at the periphery.

Lens Glare
• Stray interreflections of light within the optical lens system.
• Happens when very bright sources are present in the scene.

Radial Lens Distortions
No Distortion
Barrel Distortion
• Radial distance from Image Center:
ru = rd + k1 rd3

Our Eyes
Iris
Pupil Sclera
Cornea
 Index of refraction: cornea 1.376, aqueous 1.336, lens 1.406-1.386
 Iris is the diaphragm that changes the aperture (pupil)
 Retina is the sensor where the fovea has the highest resolution
Accommodation
shorter focal length
Changes the focal length of the lens
Myopia and Hyperopia
(myopia)
Astigmatism
The cornea is distorted causing images to be un-focused on the retina.

Mosquitos have microscopic vision, but to focus at large distances the eye would need to be 1 m!
