What is a Cylindrical Lens?
A cylindrical lens is an optical lens designed to focus light in one direction.
Unlike spherical lenses, cylindrical lenses generate a line focus and are widely used for beam shaping and optical imaging applications.
Why Use Optical Cylindrical Lenses?
Cylindrical lenses provide precise beam shaping,
line focusing, and optical correction capabilities.
They are commonly used in laser systems,
imaging devices, and industrial optical equipment.
