Refractive Index

  • The Refractive Index of a lens is the ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum divided by the speed of light in the lens material.
  • Different lens materials have a different refractive index which dictates how thick the lens would be, lower the index, thicker the lenses would be for a given power. However thinner lenses can be made specially in plus powers with providing additional parameters to the lab such as effective diameter and inter pupillary distance.
