What's
the difference between Cylindrical Lenses and Spherical Lenses? Simply
put, cylindrical lenses are made from a flat sheet of polycarbonate, and
have a flattened look in the frame. Spherical lenses are a rounded lens
for a 3D look .
Plano concave cylindrical lenses are utilized to enlarge light in single dimension. To separate input collimated light away from a line, negative (concave) cylindrical lenses are used. Plano concave cylindrical lenses are best for one-dimensional compression of images, laser line generation, and anamorphic beam shaping.
