The basic concept of cemented cylindrical mirrors is to combine two or more cylindrical lenses by gluing technology to produce lenses with the required degree and optical properties. This technology has been widely used in the medical field and eyeglasses manufacturing industry, especially in the treatment of eye diseases such as strabismus and myopia.
Improved lens performance: Multiple lenses can be glued together to provide better optical properties, such as a larger field of view and less distortion.
Improve lens quality: can repair or improve the lens surface damage or defects, improve the quality and reliability of the lens.
Reduced lens thickness: Multiple thin lenses can be glued together to create thinner, lighter lenses that provide a more comfortable wearing experience.

Medical field: In the medical field, glued cylindrical mirrors are often used to treat eye conditions such as strabismus and myopia. By gluing technology, the optical properties of the lenses can be improved to provide a better visual experience.
Eyeglasses industry: In the eyeglasses industry, glued cylindrical mirrors produce thinner, lighter and more comfortable lenses. By gluing multiple thin lenses together, the thickness of the lenses can be reduced and the comfort of wearing can be improved.
Optical system: Cylindrical mirrors also have important applications in optical systems, such as linear detector lighting, barcode scanning, holographic lighting, optical information processing and so on. Glued cylindrical mirrors can provide specific optical effects to meet different design needs.
Other fields: Glued cylindrical mirrors also play an important role in film and display systems, fax machines, printing and typesetting, laser emission and high intensity laser systems. For example, in laser measurement systems, glued cylindrical mirrors are used in equipment such as laser ranging, laser leveling instrument and laser line casting instrument , etc.
