Abstract

Polymeric materials are actively used to upgrade existing optical devices in order to improve their physical and optical properties. High-tech and relatively cheap polymer optics is a means of solving technical problems related to reduction of assembly labor intensity, improvement of design and reliability of various optical systems. Currently, ophthalmology is the most advanced area for polymer technology development. The defining trend of improving spectacle optics is gradual replacement of lenses made of silicate glass with lenses made of polymer materials, the undoubted advantages of which are almost twice lower density and significant impact resistance. This work is devoted to the development of an optical system of telescopic glasses of small multiplicity, made by the scheme Galileo using modern optical polymers. The device is designed to improve the performance of the eye and can be used for medical operations. The calculation of the presented optical system is carried out by the Zemax program. The resulting optical system is characterized by high image quality, light weight and compactness.

Summary

Introduction

In order to improve the eye performance, telescopic glasses with relatively small magnification are used (Fig.). In order to improve the eye performance, telescopic glasses with relatively small magnification are used (Fig.1) Such systems have found wide application in medicine, for manufacture of microelectronic schemes and jewels. The special requirement at development of glasses is elimination of necessity for additional accommodation of eyes at transition from observation with glasses and without them. This criterion is achieved due to the location of the object and image in one plane [1,2]. To reduce the mass and dimensional characteristics, the calculation of telescopic glasses optical system based on polymer lenses is proposed. Today the technologies of production and processing of optical polymers enable to create complex surfaces (diffraction, aspherical, "freeform"), providing compensation of aberrations and transformation of the beam shape [4]
