Similar to a Plano-Convex lens in profile, but only as a cylinder instead of a sphere, this cylindrical lens focuses light only in one dimension. It can also transform a point image into a line image or charging the height of an image without affecting its width. There are two circumference shapes, rectangular and circular.
