An optical instrument is described in which a diffractive element is located at a focal or image plane of the instrument and the diffractive element is effective to produce an array of a plurality of exit pupils at a viewing position for the instrument and thereby to form an enlarged exit pupil for the instrument. The diffractive element is formed to provide a plurality greater than two of optical diffractive gratings each being disposed angularly relative to others of the plurality of optical diffractive gratings. |
