Handbook of Visual Optics, Vol. 2: Instrumentation and Vision Correction

Description

Handbook of Visual Optics offers an authoritative overview of encyclopedic knowledge in the field of physiological optics. It builds from fundamental concepts to the science and technology of instruments and practical procedures of vision correction, integrating expert knowledge from physics, medicine, biology, psychology, and engineering. The chapters comprehensively cover all aspects of modern study and practice, from optical principles and optics of the eye and retina to novel ophthalmictools for imaging and visual testing, devices and techniques for visual correction, and the relationship between ocular optics and visual perception.
