This document discusses the properties of various lens materials, including refractive index, Abbe value, density, UV cutoff, and compares these properties across materials. It provides refractive index ranges for common materials from crown glass to plastics. Higher refractive index lenses are thinner but have greater density. Abbe value indicates resistance to chromatic aberration, with higher values being better. UV cutoff determines a material's ability to block harmful UV radiation, with polycarbonate and Trivex blocking more than crown glass or CR-39.

Influence of Thickness on Electrical and Structural Properties of Zinc Oxide ...paperpublications3
Abstract: Zinc Oxide (ZnO) thin films were prepared on corning (7059) glass substrates at a thickness of 75.5 and 130.5nm by RF sputtering technique. The deposition was carried out at room temperature after which the samples were annealed in open air at 1500C. The electrical and structural properties of these films were studied. The electrical properties of the films were monitored by four-point probe method while the structural properties were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD). It was found that the electrical resistance of the films decreases with increase in the thickness of the films. The XRD analysis of the films showed that the films have a peak located at 〖34.31^0-34.35〗^0with hkl (002). Other parameters calculated include the stress ( ) and the grain size (D).

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

3. Refractive Index (µ)
Depends upon the speed of white light inside the
material.
Hence varies according to the source of white light.
We follow the American standard light source of
Helium (d line)
Note: µ = c/ v where “ v” is the velocity of light in
lens material and “ c ” is the velocity of light in
vacuum.

4. Higher the refractive index ; thinner will be the
lens.( lesser will be the thickness. )
Example: Index of Crown glass is 1.523
Index of CR – 39(Plastic) material is 1.4985
Index range: 1.4 to 1.9
07/16/19 4
5. Index Classification
Normal index : 1.48 ≤ µ d< 1.54
Mid-index : 1.54 ≤ µ d < 1.64
High-index : 1.64 ≤ µ d < 1.74
Very high index : 1.74 ≤ µ d
where µ d is the µ or refractive index of the
material measured using Helium d line.

6. Density (kg/m3
)
Density of any material is defined as the mass per unit
volume.
The higher the density, the tighter (denser) the
particles are packed inside the substance.
Density is a physical property constant at a given
temperature and density can help to identify a
substance.
Density ? Related to sp.gravity
07/16/19 6
7. Specific gravity (unit less)
The Specific Gravity is a dimensionless unit, defined as the
ratio of density of the material to the density of pure water
at a specified temperature.
It gives an idea of the weight of one lens material on
comparison to another.
Since it is relative it lacks unit, similar to index of a
material.
Was in vogue in olden days which has been sidestepped
nowadays by density measures.
07/16/19 7
8. e.g.: if we say CR has a specific gravity of 2.5 what it
implies is that it is 2.5 times heavier than water.
e.g.: if specific gravity of CR-39 is 2.5 and that of glass
is 5 then, glass is twice as heavy as CR -39.
Note: Specific gravity is related to Refractive Index
( µ).
Usually as index increases; specific gravity also
increases.
07/16/19 8
9. Refractive Index Vs Density
1.9 (µ) glass : 4.0gm /cm3
1.8 glass : 3.7gm/cm3
1.74 high index plastics : 3.5 gm/cm3
1.7 glass : 3.2gm/cm3
1.6 plastics (Polycarbonate) :1.2 gm/cm3
CR-39 ( µ=1.49) : 1.32 gm/cm3
Crown glass (µ=1.523) : 2.54 gm/cm3
Trivex : 1.16gm/cm3
07/16/19 9
11. Abbe Number
It is a measure of the ability of lens material to
keep white light together.( that is without
producing chromatic aberration)
As the Abbe value increases chromatic
aberration decreases.
It is the reciprocal of the dispersive power of
the materials.
It is inversely proportional to refractive
index.
e.g.: Abbe Value of Poly carbonate 30 and CR-39--58.07/16/19 11

14. ULTRA VIOLET (UV) RADIATION (UVR)
Natural sources of UV
Sun emits UV-A , UV-B, and UV-C
Atmosphere's absorbs almost whole of UV- C and UV-
B through ozone layer.
Thus only UVA reaches the Earth's surface.
.
Ordinary crown glass is partially transparent to UVA
but is opaque to shorter wavelengths.( uv b and c)
While quartz or Silica glass, depending on quality, can
be transparent even to vacuum UV(FAR
UV)wavelengths.
07/16/19 14
15. Since radiation in UV-A range (320-400nm)
causes ocular damage, it is important for a lens
material to cut off this range of wave length.
The lens material can be arranged in the
following (increasing) order based on their
effectivety in absorbing UV-A.
Crown glass < CR-39 < Polycarbonate or Trivex
07/16/19 15
Note µ = c/ v where “ v “is the velocity of light in lens material and “ c ” is the velocity of light in vacuum.
nT = 1 + FT(nLM –1)/FLM
where FT = true power of lens read from
the focimeter;
FLM = sum of surface powers as
given by lens measure; and
nLM = refractive index for which the
lens measure has been scaled.
Ordinary window glass passes about 90% of the light above 350 nm, but blocks over 90% of the light below 300 nm.
