Abstract
This study examines the optical performance of three fisheye lenses under various polarization states, focusing on polarization aberration. Using ZEMAX software for simulation and a controlled laboratory setup for measurements, we use the MTF to analyze imaging quality. Results show that polarization significantly affects imaging, particularly at the edges, where polarization aberration causes increased distortion.
