What are Cylinder Lenses?
2025/6/19

Cylinder lenses are a type of lens that have differing radii in the X and Y axes, causing the lens to have a cylindrical or semi-cylindrical shape, and image magnification in only a single axis.

Cylindrical Lenses are commonly used as laser line generators, or to adjust image height size or correct for astigmatism in imaging systems.

Cylinder lenses can have a variety of form factors including rectangular, square, circular, and elliptical shapes.

He Rui Optics offers a wide range of cylinder lenses including plano-convex, plano-concave, achromatic, and acylindrical versions with a variety of substrates and coatings.
