Il testo raccoglie ed organizza le lezioni di Ottica Fisiologica presentate, negli anni, agli studenti di ottica e/o optometria del Centro di Formazione Professionale di Milano. È una guida assistita allo studio delle ametropie oculari nella loro dimensione geometrica. Dopo una sintetica presentazione della storia della ricerca scientica, dalle prime curiosità della Grecia classica sino alla denizione elettromagnetica della luce dei nostri giorni, il percorso guida lo studente, con l'utilizzo della nozione di sistema, alla dimensione algebrico-geometrica dell'Occhio Equivalente (di Gullstrand) e, da questo, alla denizione conseguente di Emmetropia. L'ampio spazio riservato alle ametropi la loro segmentazione e correzione, e all'accomodazione precede il capitolo della siologia della visione binoculare. I richiami alla introduzione alla visiologia e al teoria dell'esame della visione chiudono idealmente il percorso.
