First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for correcting aberrations in an optical system, comprising:
- applying a light adjustable aberration conjugator layer to a component of the system;
either before or after applying said conjugator layer, determining the nature of the aberration; and
applying radiation to the conjugator layer such as to modify the refraction of the conjugator layer to compensate for the aberration.

Abstract
A method of correcting aberrations in an optical system by applying a light adjustable aberration conjugator layer to a component of the system, determining the nature of the aberration, applying radiation to the conjugator layer such as to change the refraction and/or shape of the conjugator layer to compensate for the aberration, and locking in the desired optical property.
