Abstract
The use of aberration-theory-based approaches to optical design has been in decline ever since the development of good ray tracing software. However, as will be shown, the insights and conceptually accessible solution spaces offered by certain forms of third-order analysis of optical systems can still turn up powerful and original design concepts, that have been missed by generations of "ray-tracers". In this paper a series of surprising developments are made with respect to a wellknown optical relay. Novel solutions found by aberration-theory based approaches shall punctuate this talk, so justifying the main premise.
