Important points to remember about Ray optics and optical instrument

• Optics is very important topic for NEET aspirants optics is the branch of physics which deals with the behavior of light waves. 
• Under many circumstances, the wavelength of light is negligible compared with the dimensions of the device as in the case of ordinary mirror and lenses. 
• A light beam can then be treated as a ray whose propagation is governed by simple geometric rules.
• The part of optics that deals with such a phenomena is known as geometrical optics.
• Light travels along straight line path in a certain medium or in vacuum.
•  The path of light changes only where the medium changes. We call this rectilinear (straight–line) propagation of light. 
• A bundle of light rays is called a beam of light. 
• Apart from vacuum and gases, light can travel through some liquids and solids as well.
•  A medium in which light can travel without attenuation over large distances is called a transparent medium. Water, glycerine, glass and clear plastics are transparent. 
• A medium in which light cannot travel is called opaque. Wood, metals, bricks,etc., are opaque.
•  In materials like oil, light can travel some distance, but its intensity reduces rapidly. Such materials are called translucent.
• When light rays strike the boundary of two media such as air and glass, a part of light bounces back into the same medium. This phenomenon of light is called Reflection of light. 
• Object is decided by incident rays only. A point object is that point from which the incident rays actually diverge (real object) or towards which the incident rays appear to converge (virtual object).
• Image is decided by reflected or refracted rays only. A point image is that point at which the refracted /reflected rays actually converge (real image) or from which the refracted /reflected rays appear to diverge(virtual image)
• In a homogeneous transparent medium light travels along straight line. When a ray is incident normally on a boundary after reflection it retraces its path.
