Karya saintis muslim selalu menarik perhatian. Uniknya, karya tersebut menjadi tersebar dan dikenal melalui pengkajinya yang mayoritas adalah orientalis. Berikut pula para sejarawan dalam bidang sains. Salah satu saintis muslim yang digemari untuk dikaji karyanya adalah Ibnu al-Haitsam. Kajian dengan model pustaka ini berusaha mengungkap secara khusus beberapa aspek dari ilmu optika yang dikembangkan oleh Ibnu Haitsam setelah perkenalan Islam dengan peradaban sebelumnya. Data yang diungkap berfokus pada literature Ibnu Haitsam yang didapat dari kajian orientalis; yang secara spesifik membahas tentang optika. Kajian ini menemukan bahwa berbagai karya Ibnu Haitsam yang telah diedit, dikomentari, dan diterjemahkan oleh orientalis memiliki tingkat kerumitan yang tinggi. Sehingga, perlu diberikan pendahuluan yang terstruktur dalam memahaminya. Apalagi, dengan tujuan yang ringkas; yakni mengenal peran Ibnu Haitsam dari salah satu cabang dari berbagai karyanya, yakni Optika. Hasil analisa kritis menyebutkan, bahwa etos ilmiah Ibnu Haitsam begitu tinggi. Karena, ia mengakui secara jujur bahwa ilmunya dapat berkembang melalui kontribusi saintis sebelumnya. Bahkan lebih jauh lagi, ia sampai pada tingkat studi kritis dan merevisi pandangan terdahulu tentang konsep penglihatan manusia.Referensi
