EKSMA OPTICS Datasheets for Cylindrical Lenses
Cylindrical lens have at least one surface that is formed in the shape of a cylinder. Cylindrical lenses are used to correct astigmatism in the eye, and, in rangefinders, to produce astigmatism, stretching a point of light into a line. This area includes micro cylindrical lenses as well.

UV FS Biconvex Lenses |
Biconvex lenses are all symmetrical, having equal radii on both sides. They are recommended for virtual imaging of real objects, and for positive conjugate ratios from 0.2 up to 5. |
| Conical Lenses (Axicons) | Plano-convex axicons have one conical and one plano surface. Axicons can be defined by their apex angle. Conical lenses are used to transform the light into a ring or to... |
| Biconcave Lenses | These lenses are symmetrical with equal radii on both sides. The biconcave lenses are often used to expand light beams or to increase focal lengths in optical systems, and are... |
| Plano-Concave Lenses | These lenses are thicker at the edge than in the centre and flat on one side. The plano-concave lenses are used to expand light beams or to increase focal lengths... |
| Plano-Concave Cylindrical Lenses | These lenses are used in laser scanners, spectroscopy, dye lasers, acousto-optics, optical processors and other similar applications. They are the best for circularization of diode laser outputs. Earlier remarks made... |
