Lateral displacement is directly proportional to the width or thickness of the glass slab. It is also directly proportional to the angle of incidence. The factors on which lateral displacement of a ray of light passing through a rectangular glass depend are: 1) The thickness of the glass slab: The thicker the glass slab, more is the lateral displacement. 2) Angle of incidence: The lateral shift increases with increase in angle of incidence.

Lateral displacement depends upon the thickness of the glass slab, the angle of incidence and angle of refraction and since these two angles are related by refractive index, we can equally say that the lateral displacement depends upon the refraction index.
