The effects of geometrical imperfections in electron-optical components are usually evaluated in 3D simulations. These calculations inherently take a long time, require a large amount of memory, and do not directly produce the necessary axial field functions. We present a 2D perturbation method to calculate parasitic fields in misaligned multipole systems. Our method is based on finding an equivalent potential perturbation, similarly to Sturrock's method, but does not rely on the potential being differentiable. The method is directly applicable to both electrostatic and non-saturated magnetic problems. It does not require any 3D data and it is fully compatible with existing finite element method codes such as EOD. The proposed method produces axial field functions with an accuracy of units to a few tens of percents, depending on the number of unperturbed multipole field components used and the geometry. The results can then be used, for instance, to determine the parasitic imaging aberrations of the misaligned optical system using standard methods, in order to evaluate the effect of mechanical design tolerances.
