Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An optical lens includes a first lens group with a negative refractive power, an aperture stop, and a second lens group with a positive refractive power. The first lens group includes a first aspheric lens and a second aspheric lens. The optical lens satisfies the conditions: 3.5>RT1>2.5 and 3.5>RT2>2.6, where RT1 is a ratio of a maximum axial thickness to a minimum axial thickness within a clear aperture of the first aspheric lens, and RT2 is a ratio of a maximum axial thickness to a minimum axial thickness within a clear aperture of the second aspheric lens.
