What is the condition for validity of ray optics?

EASY
IMPORTANT

Lens Resolution depends on the distance between two distinguishable radiating points.This standard for separation is also known as the Rayleigh criterion. In symbols, the distance is r=1.22 λf2a, where f is the focal length of the lens and 2a is the diameter of the circular aperture .
