Optical resolution is like an eye test. It's a way to measure how sharp our vision is. It's used to see how clear things look, or how much detail can be seen. Imagine looking at something really far away--maybe a tiny speck on the horizon. The more detail you can see, the higher your optical resolution is. Optical resolution measures how many tiny details you can make out at a given distance. The higher your optical resolution, the sharper you see.
