A refractor is a telescope whose principal focusing element is a lens and collects lots of light from a distant object and brings that light, or image, to a point or focus.

most of his cards are about 12 dollars not including refractors
There are eye care instruments that can be used at home as well as in a doctors office. Some of these instruments are, refractors, pressure gauges, and glasses.
A 2006 Finest Refractors Derek Jeter card number 125 has a book value of about $12.00 in near/mint -mint condition. Professionally graded cards will sell for more. Condition is important. Common flaws with baseball cards include: rounded edges, creases, off centered, and faded color. Any or all flaws will devalue the card significantly.

Yes. Apochromatic refractors often use 3 lenses in order to focus all visible wavelengths of light at a single point to minimize or eliminate chromatic aberration.
Professional telescopes often select reflectors over refractors as their primary optical design because reflectors are generally more cost-effective and can be made with larger apertures, allowing for better light-gathering capabilities and higher resolution images. Additionally, reflectors are less prone to chromatic aberration, which can distort images in refracting telescopes.
The telescopes used by Leeuwenhoek, Huygens, and Galileo were refractors. Newton fashioned the first reflector, with a primary mirror of made polished brass.
All telescopes work best in the vacuum of space. Aside from that, "where" really is not a great factor compared to other types of telescopes. The distinct advantage of some reflecting telescopes is that they don't suffer from chromatic aberration like refractors do.

Most large telescopes are reflectors instead of refractors because reflectors are better at gathering and focusing light, allowing for clearer and more detailed images of distant objects in space. Reflectors also do not suffer from chromatic aberration, a common issue with refractors that can distort images.
