Light is an electromagnetic wave that can exist in a variety of polarization states, including linear, circular, and elliptical. These differ in the behavior of the oscillating electric field component of the electromagnetic wave. This article looks at polarization optics for biomedical and clinical applications.

Light is an oscillating electromagnetic field that can be decomposed into its electric and magnetic field components. The electric field oscillates perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the light. The behavior of this field through time and its orientation determines a property called the polarization of the light.
