Abstract:
The total power of the so-called thin spherical lenses, simplifying the formula of the manufacturers, because they are considered lenses of "zero" thickness, is calculated from the algebraic sum of the powers of the two curvatures which form them. Thus in the case, in which one of the two surfaces also incorporates cylinder power, the lens can be expressed by the planar transformations, in three different forms. But when they also incorporate a base, for the lens design option, then toric transformations are applied, where the toric surface represents the front or back (usually) surface.
