LENSMETER O LENSOMETER

In 1876, Hermann Snellen introduced a phakometer which was a similar set up to an optical bench which could measure the power and find the optical centre of a convex lens. Troppman went a step further in 1912, introducing the first direct measuring instrument.

In 1922, a patent was filed for the first projection lensmeter, which has a similar system to the standard lensmeter, but projects the measuring target onto a screen eliminating the need for correction of the observer's refractive error in the instrument itself and reducing the requirement to peer down a small telescope into the instrument. Despite these advantages the CLASIC design is still predominant in the optical world

WHAT IS A LENSMETER

A lensmeter or lensometer, also known as a focimeter, is an ophthalmic instrument. It is mainly used by optometrists and opticians to verify the correct prescription in a pair of eyeglasses, to properly orient and mark uncut lenses, and to confirm the correct mounting of lenses in spectacle frames. Lensmeters can also verify the power of contact lenses, if a special lens support is used. A lensmeter is an essential piece of equipment for the eye care professional. This instrument measures the power of spectacle and contact lenses and is one of the first purchases we make when setting up a practice. Whether manual or automatic, lensmeters function by neutralizing the power of the lens being measured and then displaying the resulting prescription. Specifically, lensmeters utilize a telescope to detect the neutralization point: the distance measurement is determined from the back vertex power, the add measurement is taken from the front vertex power, and any prism measurement is derived from displacement of the target pattern. The automatic devices, which are easier to use and have many additional bells and whistles, will be the focus of this article. Here are some of the latest lensmeters from HANS HEISS:
