Abstract
Optical systems with very long eye relief and large working distances (10) and (110) with four lenses (12), (14), (16), (18) and (20) and three lenses (112), (114) and (116), respectively, have lens surfaces shaped to focus upon an object such that a high resolution image is formed at infinity substantially over the entire field of view. High resolution and low distortion are substantially maintained independent of the user's eye location.
