Advanced geometric optics as traditionally presented uses the approach of Conrady. The subject can be made easier to teach and learn through the use of two powerful tools: matrix-based paraxial optics and computer-based non-paraxial analysis and design. Programs which handle many different kinds of problems are discussed and misunderstandings concerning the definitions of the point aberrations are corrected.
