Maxwellian view
Maxwellian view[mak‚swel·ē·ən ′vyü] (optics) A method of using an optical instrument in which a real image of a light source is focused on the pupil of the eye, instead of using an eyepiece. maxwellian view
maxwellian viewMethod of observation in which a converging lens forms an image in the plane of the entrance pupil of the observer. If the observer's eye is focused on the lens, the lens will appear as a disc filled with light of uniform intensity. This optical arrangement makes it possible to choose the point of incidence within the pupil, to minimize the effect of the optical aberrations of the eye and to avoid the effect of pupil size on the amount of light entering the eye (Fig. M6). See conjugate distances.
