Abstract
Only a few meetings qualify as landmark meetings in the recent history of optical design. Each of these meetings demonstrated the significant issues of the day. The Rochester meeting of 1966 marked an early high point in the development of automated lens-design programs and set the tone for several years in which the principal topics of discussion centered around computers rather than lenses.
