RE:Axial Magnification
For those clinicians wishing to have more than a working knowledge of axial magnification, I have drawn geometric figures to cover the necessary preliminary concepts. Axial magnification is presented only after a thorough spatial representation of tangential refraction along a line and a circle. In order to visualize the relevant axial ratio equalities involved using triangles, the optic axis is then represented as a circle of infinite radius, and the sign convention remains unnecessary.
