Abstract

We present a mesh-based method for optimizing double-sided freeform lenses to control their caustic effects. Unlike traditional single-sided approaches, we optimize both sides of the lens simultaneously, using a bijective correspondence between the two sides to control light refraction paths. Our approach balances image fidelity, geometric compatibility, and physical constraints. Results demonstrate the method's capability to accurately produce intricate light patterns, opening new possibilities in optical applications.
