A cylindrical lens is one that focuses light into a straight line. A cylindrical lens’s curved face is made up of sections of a cylinder that focus the image traveling through it onto a line parallel to the junction of the lens’s surface and a plane tangent to it. The lens compresses the image in the direction perpendicular to this line while leaving it unchanged in the parallel direction. It is used to correct for certain types of vision defects, such as astigmatism, and in applications such as spectroscopy, laser scanning, image projection, and optical systems to create an elongated or compressed image. It is also used in photography and film production to control the focus and distortion of an image.
