Why is the lens flexible? The lens within our eyes is flexible so that it can adjust according to the environment you are in‚ so that you can see clearer and focus on an object closer up or farther away. It bends and shifts depending on how close or far you are from the object you are looking at. When you age‚ the lens becomes less flexible and it becomes harder to see. This is a condition that will eventually affect everybody‚ and is known as presbyopia. Name the three parts that the eye needs

Controlled assessment research Focus length of a lens- The most important characteristic of a lens is its principal focal length‚ or its inverse which is called the lens strength or lens "power". Optometrists usually prescribe corrective lenses in terms of the lens power in diopters. The lens power is the inverse of the focal length in meters: the physical unit for lens power is 1/meter which is called diopter Convex- The word convex means curving out or bulging outward‚ as opposed to concave

How does a Lens Refract Light? Different Lenses refract light in different ways. First‚ we will look at a double convex lens. Several light rays will approach the convex lens in a parallel manner. After they approach the lens‚ each ray will refract towards the normal. The light is passing from an optical less dense medium (Air) into a more dense medium (such as plastic or glass) at this boundary. Since the light rays are passing the boundary from a less dense medium in which light travels fast (optically

Investigation into how the focal length of a lens affects the temperature at the focal point Research & Rationale: In my project I will be looking in to how different lenses with varying thicknesses and therefore focal points magnify and intensify light passing through it. To do this I will be measuring the temperature of an object behind the lens‚ at the focal point. The study and research of lenses was not part of the course this year‚ so I thought it would be more interesting to study a new

Name: Skill Sheet 17.3 Thin Lens Formula Here you will become familiar and practice with a mathematical formula called “the thin lens formula.” This formula gives scientists a way to calculate the location and the size of an image that is produced by a lens. 1. What is the thin lens formula? When you use the thin lens formula‚ you assume that the thickness of the lens is very small compared with the distance between the lens and the object or the image. The formula applies both to convex or converging

frame lenses have a bigger image circle than the image circle on crop lenses. This is the key difference between these two lens types and we have seen this in the many examples of cropped vs full frame. As I said earlier‚ full frame lenses have no problem adjusting to cropped sensors because the image circle is big anyway. On the other hand‚ if you were to put a cropped lens on a full frame sensor the image circle would be too small to cover the entire sensor and‚ as a result‚ you would get blackened

How to insert a soft contact lens in your eye I was blessed with my father’s eyes. Therefore I have had to wear corrective lenses since I was in the second grade. When I turned 15 years old I started to wear soft contact lenses. I was so excited to finally get out of glasses. At first it was very hard to get the hang of how to put the contact lenses in. After much practice I finally got it. I have been wearing soft contact lenses for nine years now. Every morning I put the contacts in my eyes
