c. In practice, the resolving power of a lens
selected for a specific purpose is usually so great that
any lack of sharpness of detail is too slight to be
observed and, therefore, too slight to be objectionable in
the performance of the service for which the lens is
intended.

(divergent) lenses of slightly unequal curvature are
pressed one against the other, irregular bands or
