This helps to obtain and analyze, without any simplications, used in known works, the equation describing the form of isochromes of any order in conoscopic patterns of uniaxial crystals. The calculated isochromes patterns for some angles between axis and normal which have the most obvious difference from the ones which were prognosticated before are verified experimentally on paratellurite crystal with special orientations of two pairs of faces.
