File:Spherical aberration 2.svg

Description
Conceptual ray diagrams of ideal and spherically aberrated lenses. A perfect lens (top) focuses all incoming rays to a single point on the optic axis, but a real lens with spherical surfaces (bottom) focuses different rays to different points along the optic axis, depending on the radial position of each incoming ray.
