In several patents, for example SU 1151905 (A1) (USSR, publ. 23.04.1985), EN 2244330 (C2) (Russian Federation, publ. 10.01.2005), with the purpose of correcting chromatic aberrations and improve image quality on one of the surfaces of the lens caused hologram optical element, but its parameters and correlation with other parameters of the lens elements is unacceptable for the case of lenses of this class.

Known pathcomponent lenses are described, for example, in patents JP 2000193884 (A) (Japan, publ. 14.07.2000), JP 2001100092 (A) (Japan, publ. 13.04.2001)US 2006024038 (A1) (USA, publ. 2.02.2006). The disadvantages of these lenses can be attributed to a narrow spectral range, a small relative aperture, quite long and the poor quality of the image.

The closest analogue to the claimed technical solution is the lens patent US 2006056068 (A1) (USA, publ. 16.03.2006), adopted by the authors for the prototype.

The first, third and fourth components the options lens made of polymethyl methacrylate, a negative meniscus second component is made of polycarbonate, and a biconvex lens made of polymethyl methacrylate.

The essence of the invention is that a significant improvement in image quality is achieved by replacing the second component of the prototype, made in the form of a biconcave lens component consisting of a negative meniscus facing convex surface to the object, which is applied to a hologram optical element, and a lenticular lens facing more bulge to the subject. This component as a component of the prototype, has a negative optical power. Thus the characteristic equation of the hologram element has the form

where Ai- coefficients; r is the height on the surface of the hologram optical element, and the coefficient And1proportional to the optical power of hologram optical element, and the coefficients And2And3... , And6proportion to the respective coefficients of spherical aberration of the lens components.

Thus, in the inventive plastic lenses the lens apochromat achieved the above technical result is obtained comprehensive correcting the monochromatic and chromatic aberrations of axial and off-axis beams, h is about leading to significant improvements in image quality across the field.
