Abstract
We want to acknowledge prior research with a very similar focus to our own which we failed to discover before the publication of our paper.

A research paper [1] with very similar goals to our own research has been brought to our attention. It was published some months before we sent the manuscript for the present paper. Much like our own paper, it compares optimization algorithms on optical case studies. We think we needed to provide proper acknowledgment of prior research in the present erratum.
The comparison methodology, optical systems presented and optimization algorithms used differ between the two papers however.
