← HistoryWhich outcome occurred when early lens grinders polished uneven surfaces?
A)Spherical aberration reduced image clarity✓
B)Chromatic effects boosted color accuracy
C)Diffraction patterns assisted magnification control
D)Polarization aligned light for intensity
💡 Explanation
Spherical aberration impaired early lenses because imprecise curvatures caused light rays to converge imperfectly through refraction, thereby blurring images rather than forming sharp focal points like a parabolic mirror would.
