Abstract:
A device comprises a light-guiding component, an optical component, and a light-reflecting component that is configured to receive light from the optical component and direct the light along a path. Also, at least one of the optical component and the light-reflecting component has an optical power in a tangential direction or a sagittal direction that compensates for a negative power of a sheath in the tangential direction to correct for aberration.

Claim (Index 15):
A device comprising:\n a sheath; and an optical probe that includes:\n a first light-guiding component, \n an optical component, and \n a light-reflecting component, \n wherein the optical probe has a negative optical power in the tangential direction, wherein the sheath surrounds at least part of the optical component and at least part of the light-reflecting component, and the sheath has an optical power in the sagittal direction, and wherein at least one of the optical component and/or the light-reflecting component has the negative optical power in the tangential direction, and the negative optical power is essentially equal or approximately equal to the optical power of the sheath in the sagittal direction.
