1. A Kohler-integration illumination optical system, comprising:

  • a first surface; and

    a second surface;

    wherein each of the first and second surfaces comprising a multiplicity of corresponding Cartesian-oval lenticulations such that each lenticulation of the first surface focuses a source upon a corresponding lenticulation of the second surface and each lenticulation of the second surface focuses a target upon a corresponding lenticulation of the first surface;

    wherein at least for one of the first and second surfaces the edges lines of its lenticulations reside on a free-form surface.
