para-axis

English to Polish Science Physics
Taki kontekst, paraaxial to przyosiowy ale nie wiem jak przetłumaczyć para-axis - That is, it is considered that, in a lens, a light beam which passes through a lens at a position away from an optical axis intersects with the optical axis at a position different from a paraxial focal point in a direction of a steep meridian and in a direction of a flat meridian. Accordingly, in a toric lens, it is not always the case where cylindrical refractivity on a para-axis and cylindrical refractivity at a portion away from the optical axis agree with each other.

If you are happy, I am happy, tadeusz50.
tadeusz50 (asker) Apr 6, 2022:
Liz and Frank, thanks a lot for your contribution. On the basis of what you sent I think I found the right equivalent for "para-axis", it is "niby oś"
@Liz Askew: Para-axis may exist in Polish under a different name. It is important to have an exact definition first.

oś biegnąca blisko osi optycznej (ang. para-axis)//oś przyosiowa

A multi-focal lens having a center optical zone for creating a first focal point within 2° of the optical axis and a peripheral optical zone located adjacent the center optical zone for creating a second focal point from 2° to 10° of the optical axis, the peripheral optical zone having a correction of at least 2 diopters more than the center optical zone.


"Off-axis," when referring to light passing through a lens, refers to a direction that is not substantially parallel to the optical axis of the lens, such that incoming light entering the lens deviates from the optical axis with an angle larger than zero. In an ocular visual system, an off-axis image is conjugated to the retina areas out of the fovea portion of the retina, in particular in the parafovea or perifovea areas (as illustrated in Figure 2). An off-axis can be further defined as "para-axis" if the incoming light enters the optical device deviating from the optical axis of the system with an angle beyond 2 degrees and within 10 degrees. The "optical axis" in an optical device, such as a lens, means a line along which there is some degree of rotational symmetry, such that the device is radially symmetrical around the line.

Soczewka cienka – modelowa soczewka sferyczna o zaniedbywalnie małej grubości. Pojęcie soczewki cienkiej zostało wprowadzone w celu uproszczania wzorów opisujących bieg promieni w układach optycznych (np. w równaniu soczewki) w optyce geometrycznej. Dobrym przybliżeniem soczewki cienkiej jest soczewka, której grubość jest znacznie mniejsza od jej ogniskowej, a średnica jest znacznie mniejsza od promieni krzywizn soczewki, i dla której rozpatrywane są tylko promienie przyosiowe, tzn. biegnące blisko osi optycznej.
