Abstract:
These lenses whose at least one of the two surfaces is a section of a sphere are called spherical lenses. The surfaces of these lenses can be concave or convex combined with each other or combined with a flat surface. The total refractive power of spherical lens depends not only on the refractive power of each of its surfaces but also on the thickness of the lens. When a beam of light passes through astigmatic lens, it will not focus on one point and the rays that come out of the lens will pass through two small lines, which are perpendicular to each other and at a distance from each other.
