Corrective lens require correction of a refractive error. Some people with good natural eyesight like to wear eyeglasses as a style accessory, or want to change the appearance of their eyes using novelty contact lenses. Although corrective lenses can be produced in many different profiles, the most common is ophthalmic or convex-concave. In an ophthalmic lens, both the front and back surface have a positive radius, resulting in a positive / convergent front surface and a negative / divergent back surface. The difference in curvature between the front and rear surface leads to the corrective power of the lens. In hyperopia a
Parallel projection Parallel projection A parallel projection is a projection of an object in three-dimensional space onto a fixed plane, known as the "projection plane" or "image plane", where the "rays", known as "lines of sight" or "projection lines", are parallel to each other. It is a basic tool in descriptive geometry. The projection is called "orthographic" if the rays are perpendicular (orthogonal) to the image plane, and "oblique" or "skew" if they are not. A parallel projection is a particular case of "projection" in mathematics and "graphical projection" in technical drawing. Parallel projections can be seen as the limit of a
