Glasses: Encyclopedia II - Light - Speed of light

Although some people speak of the "velocity of light", the word velocity should be reserved for vector quantities, that is, those with both magnitude and direction. The speed of light is a scalar quantity, having only magnitude and no direction, and therefore speed is the correct term. The speed of light has been measured many times, by many physicists. The best early measurement is Ole Rømer's (a Danish physicist), in 1676. By observing the motions of Jupiter and one of its moons, Io, with a telescope, and noting discr ...

A corrective lens is a lens worn on or before the eye, used to treat myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. The most common types of corrective lenses are spectacle lenses and contact lenses. Intraocular lenses are also beginning to become common.

Bikini Bottom - Location. Aside from being located at the bottom of the ocean, Bikini Bottom's location is uncertain. However, Bikini Bottom is heavily reflective of United States culture; the residents use dollars and speak English, among other factors.

Glasses: Encyclopedia II - Glasses - Glasses as a fashion accessory

Glasses are often regarded as unattractive, and many people prefer to wear contact lenses for that reason. Contact lenses also provide much improved peripheral vision. On the other hand, many people are attracted to people who wear glasses, and glasses are available in a wide range of styles, materials, and even designer labels. Glasses can be a major part of personal expression, from the extravagance of Elton John and Dame Edna Everage, from Groucho Marx to John Denver to Lisa Loeb all the way to the varied pr ...

Glasses: Encyclopedia II - Glasses - Variation in glasses

Glasses can be very simple. Magnifying lenses for reading that are used to treat mild hypermetropia and presbyopia can be bought off the shelf, but most glasses are made to a particular prescription, based on degree of myopia or hypermetropia combined with astigmatism. Lenses can be ground to specific eyes, but in most cases standard off-the-shelf prescriptions suffice, but require custom-fitting to particular frames. As people age, their ability to focus is lessened and many decide to use multiple-focus lenses, bifocal or even trifoc ...

Safety glasses are usually made with shatter-resistant plastic lenses to protect the eye from flying debris. Although safety lenses may be constructed from a variety of materials that vary in impact resistance, certain standards suggest that they maintain a minimum 1mm thickness at the thinest point regardless of material. Safety glasses can vary in the level of protection they provide. For example, those used in medicine may be expected to protect against blood splatter while safety glasses in a factory might have stronger lenses and a stro ...
