In the area of non-imaging optics using the aberration theory is rare because there is no obvious connection between the required light distribution and aberrations’ value. The advantage of designing according to the aberration theory is the speed of calculations. In previous works, we have shown how to apply the third-order aberrations theory to the collimating TIR lens design. In the current study, we analyze more general cases (converging and diverging beam of rays) and the illuminance and intensity distribution through the illuminated area for different variants of aberration correction of a lens.
