Which outcome occurs when imperfect lens polishing reduces wavefront conformity?

💡 Explanation

Reduced wavefront conformity causes destructive interference, reducing fringe visibility, because the optical path differences become blurred across the measurement plane. Therefore, measurements lose precision; rather than improving or distorting the image.
