History

Which imaging defect arose earliest in Alhazen's lens experiments?

A)Chromatic spherical image aberration
B)Elliptical sagittal focal astigmatism
C)Comatic tangential asymmetric flares
D)Distorted barrel or pincushion effect

💡 Explanation

Spherical aberration was observed first, because light rays focus at differing points, creating a blurred image rather than a single clear focus, therefore explaining original challenges using early simple lenses; other aberrations required refined experiments.
