Zusammenfassung:An optical apparatus comprises an optical component having at least one optical surface and a first optical axis, a socket in which said optical component is mounted, first manipulators arranged to exert forces approximately parallel to the optical axis of the optical component for varying stresses in the optical component, the forces having a strength such that stress birefringence is induced in the component.
