Abstract
An optical system includes an optical element arranged in an optical path of an optical system. A point spread function of the optical element images out-of-focus object points with positive defocus value into image areas oriented along a first radial axis in an image plane and out-of-focus object points with negative defocus value into image areas oriented along a second radial axis in the image plane. A distance of the image areas to an optical axis of the optical system increases with increasing absolute defocus value.
