Ophthalmic optics
Ophthalmic optics is the study and design of lenses and optical devices used to correct vision problems. It involves understanding how lenses alter light to help focus images properly on the retina, improving clarity and vision quality. This includes making glasses, contact lenses, and other corrective devices tailored to individual needs. The field combines principles of physics, biology, and engineering to ensure that optical solutions effectively address issues like nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia, helping people see clearly and comfortably.
