The article analysis was carried out within the confines of the replication project of the telescope, which was used by Mikhail Lomonosov at observation the transit of Venus in 1761. At that time he discovered the Venusian atmosphere. It is known that Lomonosov used Dollond 4.5 feet long achromatic telescope. The investigation revealed significant faults in the description of the approximation method, which most likely was used by J. Dollond & Son during manufacturing of the early achromatic lenses.
