zemax can help to design many kinds of optical systems. Here are the basic steps: zYF&Dv/u/

1. make spec for your system r_sl~^* :
2. make initial design 0Ilvr]1a4
3. choose glass materials F8;4Oj
4. analysize the abration and image... sl

5. modify and optimze them (this is the core of the design). HtYR 0J

To do these, you need to study basic knowledge of geometric optics.
