In geometry, a line segment is a part of a line that is bounded by two distinct end points, and contains every point on the line between its endpoints. A closed line segment includes both endpoints, while an open line segment excludes both endpoints; a half-open line segment includes exactly one of the endpoints.

an angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle. Angles formed by two rays lie in a plane, but this plane does not have to be a Euclidean plane. Angles are also formed by the intersection of two planes in Euclidean and other spaces. These are called dihedral angles.

2. The direction from which an object is viewed.

3. The form produced by a change in direction of a line or plane.
angle alpha Angle between the visual axis and the optical axis formed at the first nodal point of the eye. The visual axis usually lies nasal to the optical axis on the plane of the cornea ( positive angle alpha). It is, on average, equal to about 5º in the adult eye. If it lies temporal to the optical axis, the angle is denoted negative (Fig. A9). Symbol: α. See angle lambda.

It is usually represented by the difference between the objective and subjective angles of deviation in abnormal retinal correspondence. See line of direction; abnormal retinal correspondence.
angle of the anterior chamber Angle at the periphery of the anterior chamber formed by the root of the iris, the front surface of the ciliary body and the trabecular meshwork. Syn. angle of filtration; drainage angle; irido-corneal angle. See gonioscope; Shaffer and Schwartz van Herick method; Smith's method; shadow test.
apical angle See prism angle.
angle of azimuth The angle through which the eyes have turned right or left from the primary position by a rotation about the vertical axis.
Brewster's angle See angle of polarization.
contact angle Angle formed by a surface and a tangent to a sessile drop of fluid (usually water) at the point where the drop meets the surface. This angle indicates the degree of wettability of that surface. The more wettable (or hydrophilic) the material, the smaller the angle, being equal to 0º for a completely hydrophilic material when water spreads evenly over that surface. Hydrophobic surfaces can have contact angles greater than 90º, e.g. silicone rubber in which the angle is about 120º (Fig. A10). Syn. wetting angle. See sessile drop test.
angle of convergence Angle between the lines of sight of the two eyes which are in a state of convergence. The angle is positive when the lines of sight intersect in front of the eyes, and negative when they intersect behind the eyes. Note: some authors regard the angle of convergence as the rotation of one eye only towards the fixation point, and refer to the angle of convergence of both eyes, defined above, as the total angle of convergence or the total convergence. The total angle of convergence required for binocular fixation of a target is equal to

or

where d is the distance between the target and the midpoint of the base line and PD the interpupillary distance. Syn. angle of triangulation. See metre angle; prism dioptre; line of sight.
critical angle That angle of incidence which results in the refracted ray travelling along the surface between the two media (angle of refraction equal to 90º). If the angle of incidence is greater than the critical angle, the ray is totally reflected. If, however, the angle of incidence is smaller than the critical angle, the ray is refracted (with some light reflected). The critical angle i c is given by the following formula

where n and n' are the indices of the media on each side of the surface, with the light travelling from the high index medium n to the low index medium n′ (Fig. A11). Syn. limiting angle. See fibre optics; reflecting prism; total reflection; refractometer.
angle of deviation 1. Angle through which a ray of light is deviated on reflection by a mirror, or refraction by a lens or prism. 2. Angle between the visual axis (or line of sight) of the deviated eye in strabismus and the straight-ahead position while the other eye fixates straight ahead. It can be assessed subjectively by having the patient report simultaneous perception (e.g. the lion in the cage seen in the amblyoscope) or objectively as measured by the practitioner either with the amblyoscope or using prisms and cover test, or by the Hirschberg test. Syn. angle of squint; angle of strabismus. See angle of anomaly; incomitance; Hirschberg's method; Javal's method; Krimsky's method; minimum deviation of a prism.

angle of incidence Angle between the incident ray and the normal to the surface at the point of incidence in either reflection or refraction at a surface separating two media.
irido-corneal angle See angle of the anterior chamber.
angle kappa Angle between the pupillary axis and the visual axis, measured at the nodal point. Symbol: κ. See angle lambda; line of sight.
angle lambda Angle between the pupillary axis and the line of sight formed at the centre of the entrance pupil. It is this angle which is measured clinically as it is almost equal to angle alpha. Symbol: λ. See pupillary axis; line of sight.
limiting angle See critical angle.
metre angle (ma) Unit of convergence which is equal to the reciprocal of the distance (in metres) between the point of fixation assumed to lie on the median line and the base line of the eyes. Thus, if an object is located at 25 cm from the base line, each eye converges through 4 ma; at 1 metre, 1 ma, etc. Metre angles of convergence can be converted into prism dioptres of convergence by multiplying by the subject's interpupillary distance expressed in cm. Example: for a PD of 6.0 cm, a convergence of 5 ma = 30 Χ. See angle of convergence.
minimum angle of resolution (MAR) The angle subtended at the nodal point of the eye (or the centre of the entrance pupil) by two points or two lines which can just be distinguished as separate. See visual acuity; log MAR chart.
palpebral angle See canthus.
pantoscopic angle Angle between the spectacle plane and the frontal plane of the face when the superior edge of the lens is farther away from the face than the inferior edge (Fig. A12). Syn. pantoscopic tilt. See retroscopic angle.
angle of polarization The angle of incidence at which the reflected light is maximally polarized. At this angle, the reflected and refracted rays are 90º apart (Fig. A13). This angle i is given by the equation

and measures 56.7º when the first medium n ₁ is air and the second medium n ₂ is a glass with an index of refraction equal to 1.523. Syn. Brewster's angle. See polarized light.
prism angle The angle between the two refracting surfaces of a prism. Syn. apical angle; refracting angle (this term is deprecated because of the confusion with 'angle of refraction').
recession angle A tear between the longitudinal and circular muscles of the ciliary body. It is most often noted following blunt trauma to the anterior segment. It is typically followed by hyphaemia. This form of injury predisposes the individual to elevated intraocular pressure (i.e. increased risk of glaucoma) in the future. With a gonioscope, angle recession appears with an abnormally wide ciliary body band with a prominent scleral spur and some torn iris processes. There are also marked variations in the width and depth of the angle in different quadrants of the eye. See cyclodialysis; hyphaemia; iridodialysis; ciliary muscle.
angle of reflection Angle between the reflected ray and the normal to the surface at the point of incidence.
angle of refraction Angle between the refracted ray and the normal to the surface at the point of emergence.
retroscopic angle Angle between the spectacle plane and the frontal plane of the face when the superior edge of the lens is closer to the face than the inferior edge. Syn. retroscopic tilt. See pantoscopic angle; frontal plane; spectacle plane.
angle of squint See angle of deviation.
angle of stereopsis The difference between the angles subtended at the centres of the entrance pupils of the two eyes by two points located in space at different distances from the eyes. See stereoscopic visual acuity; Howard-Dolman test; three-needle test.
angle of strabismus See angle of deviation. total a. of convergence See angle of convergence.
angle of triangulation See angle of convergence.
viewing angle See visual angle.
visual angle The angle subtended by the extremities of an object at the anterior nodal point of the eye. If the object is far away, the point of reference can be the centre of the entrance pupil or even the anterior pole of the cornea. Syn. viewing angle.
wetting angle See contact angle.
refracting angle See angle, prism.
