High index glassesHigh index glasses::- Used for high refractive errorsUsed for high refractive errors- Have a high refractive index of 1.56-1.67, Have a high refractive index of 1.56-1.67,
as compared to 1.52 for crown glassas compared to 1.52 for crown glass- These lenses, therefore, are thinner, flatter These lenses, therefore, are thinner, flatter
and lighterand lighter- Eg flint glass (1.62)Eg flint glass (1.62)

Aspheric lenses:Aspheric lenses:
- - Lens curvature flattens peripherally Lens curvature flattens peripherally thereby reducing aberrations and thereby reducing aberrations and hence providing better peripheral hence providing better peripheral visionvision
