different phenomena relating to optics. It covers aberrometry and wavefront technology,
refraction at a plane and spherical surface, chromatic aberration, optical fibre, lenses
and their varieties, light, wave light and simple harmonic, motion, holography,
defraction and polarization of light coherence, laser, photometry, spectroscopy, the
velocity of light and its importance, viscosity and fluid motion, contact lenses, etc.
Includes many recent techniques of refractive errors and surgery of the eye. Incorporate
skillfully the theory and art of practice of optics and refraction. Its text is so well
organized that helps to understand, retain and reproduce facts easily. Provides a detailed
study on action of the eye and response of eye to light color formation of image, far
