Cylindrical Lens

A cylindrical lens is a lens which focuses light into a line instead of a point as a spherical lens would. The curved face or faces of a cylindrical lens are sections of a cylinder, and focus the image passing through it into a line parallel to intersection of the surface of the lens and a plane tangent to it along the cylinder’s axis.
Discover the power of Cylindrical Lenses—essential components for controlling light and shaping optical beams with unmatched precision. Whether you’re designing advanced imaging systems, laser optics, or beam-shaping devices, cylindrical lenses offer unique capabilities that spherical lenses simply can’t match.

Cylindrical lenses converges or diverges the image in the direction perpendicular to this line, and leaves it unaltered in the direction parallel to its cylinder’s axis.
