Hi, I am an undergraduate student in computer science and is currently studying physics, specifically photonics. I was just wondering if somebody here could advice me some good links about this subject since the course litterature is not instructional at all and very difficult to understand. Yeah, I know how to use google but just in case somebody could help me in order for me to not being in need to search the stuff :). Thanks in advance!

sry can't say anything but "wikipedia"
 
The best online resources are hosted by companies that make/sell photonics related products.

Some companies I can recall off the top of my head; Thor Labs (general), Renishaw (Raman spectroscopy/microscopy), Oz-optics (fibre-optics), Olympus (Microscopy), Schott (glass), Kigre (more glass), Spectra Physics (Lasers), Melles Griot (general optics).

Good Luck.

Thread 'The focal length of the eye and image inversion'

After my surgery this year, gas remained in my eye for a while. The light air bubbles appeared to sink to the bottom, and I realized that the brain was processing the information to invert the up/down/left/right image transferred to the retina. I have a question about optics and ophthalmology. Does the inversion of the image transferred to the retina depend on the position of the intraocular focal point of the lens of the eye? For example, in people with farsightedness, the focal point is...
