ABSTRACT:
An aspherical eyepiece has a positive lens group and a correction plate positioned on the light incident side of the positive lens group and having an aspherical surface. The correction plate is positioned between the positive lens group and the front side focal plane of the positive lens group or in front of the front side focal plane of the positive lens group. Thus, although the eyepiece is constructed by a reduced number of optical members including an aspherical optical member, distortion can be favorably corrected even with a wide field angle.
