❖ The following is the procedure for measuring the right-eye lens.

3 Measure the distance power.

1) Bring the intermediate portion (progressive zone)
onto the nosepiece.
Place a portion that is slightly lower than the center of
the lens on the nosepiece.

The target indicating the distance portion is dis-

played.
The arrow shows the direction in which the lens

• To correctly measure the progressive power lens, note the following.

• First align the lens horizontally, then vertically.
• Move the lens while the frames are constantly in contact with the lens table.
• Ensure that the lens back surface is constantly in contact with the nosepiece.

2) Move the lens horizontally to align the target to the

vertical line of the crossline.
3) Slowly move the lens backward (upward on the
screen) to align the target to the crossline.
If the target is shifted to the right or left from the verti-
cal line of the crossline while the lens is moved, move
the lens horizontally.
When the vertical position is roughly aligned, the
arrow disappears.

4) Precisely adjust the lens vertically and horizontally to

align the target to the crossline.

When the target changes to (cross) and the

measured data stabilizes, the measured data is auto-
matically locked in.
The screen automatically changes to add power mea-
surement for the near portion.

4 Measure the near add power.

1) The target indicating the near portion is displayed.
The arrow shows the direction in which the lens
should be moved.
2) Slowly move the lens in the direction of the arrow
(toward the operator).
When the intermediate portion (progressive zone) is
detected, the message appears and the current add
power (Ad) appears.

Indicators for near portion appear above, below, to the right, and left of the target, indicating
the direction and distance for which the lens is to be moved. Move the lens in the direction of
indicators.
The greater the number of indicators (up to three), the farther the lens is to be moved.

3) Align the lens horizontally.

Move the lens horizontally until indicators for near
portion to the right or left of the target disappear.
4) Align the lens vertically.
Move the lens vertically until indicators for near por-
tion above or below the target disappear.

• If indicators for near portion appear to the right or left of the target again while the lens is vertically
aligned, align the lens horizontally again.
Always align the lens vertically while indicators are not displayed to the right or left of the target.
• Indicators for near portion above the target may not disappear.
For vertically narrow frames, indicators for near portion may not disappear due to steep variation in
lens power even if the lens is moved toward the operator.

● When auto read does not function properly

Measure the point that is closest to the near portion and perform auto read.
1) Measure the distance portion of the lens with the auto read function until the target changes from
to (cross).

2) After the measurement, leave the lens table as it is

and move the frames toward the operator. At this
time, make sure that indicators for near portion
are not displayed to the right or left of the target.
When the near portion cannot be detected and the
bottom of the frame begins to contact the nosepiece,
moving the frame so that the nosepiece is positioned
about one third back (measurement point) allows
near portion auto read to function.

Maximum addition power is automatically detected from a part of near portion on the nosepiece.

❖ For the measured data obtained here, the near portion is not intact. It is the power remaining
in the lens being measured and not an estimation of the near power that the lens originally
had.

• Even when the Near auto read parameter is set to “Off”, auto read functions if the near portion is
not intact.
• The measuring method is the same as normal lenses, however, note the following.
• When moving down the lens, make sure that indicators for near portion are not displayed to the
right or left of the target.
• If auto read is performed while the lens is shifted to the right or left, addition power is underesti-
mated.
• Perform alignment with the lens covering more than half of the nosepiece.
• If the lens comes off a large portion of the nosepiece, the error message “Measurement error”
appears.
• It is not possible to determine to what extent the addition power is not intact from that originally
designed.
Consider that the addition power obtained with this function is lower than actual.

This is a value obtained by adding half of a cylinder
value to a sphere value. If a cylinder value is mea-
sured in a lens that should not have that value, the
SE value is more reliable than the SPH value to know
the total sphere value.
Measurement error caused by an unintended cylin-
der value is reduced.

3.9 UV Transmittance Measurement

For UV (ultraviolet) transmittance, the transmittance at the center wavelength of 365 nm (UV-A) is
measured in percentage. UV transmittance can be measured on all measurement screens.
To measure UV transmittance, set the Transmittance, Transmittance step, and Auto correct parame-
ters. In addition, set the Transmittance display parameter to “Compare” or “Simple” for the method of
the measured result display.

♦ Harmful effects of ultraviolet rays on eyes

Ultraviolet rays included in sunlight are roughly classified into three types.

Classification Effect
UV-C • Absorbed by the ozone layer and hardly reaches the ground.
280 nm or less
• Absorbed in cornea causing corneal injury such as keratitis.
UV-B
• Causes sunburn and skin becomes red.
280 to 320 nm
• Causes skin irritation and skin damage such as stains, freckles, and wrinkles.

UV-A • Accumulated in the crystalline lens resulting in cataract.

320 to 380 nm • Skin becomes dark after sunburn.

This device measures UV-A transmittance.

UV cut-off blocks ultraviolet rays with wavelengths shorter than a certain wavelength. Measure-
ment of UV-A transmittance is effective to assess protection.

2 Insert the spring and new cartridge into the

marker holder, and set the C-ring b in the
groove at the end of the ink cartridge.
Match the shaft of the cartridge to the hole of the marker
holder by rotating until the cartridge can be inserted
smoothly.
For the C-ring, use either the one removed in Step 1 or the b
one attached to the cartridge as a replacement part.

5.5.2 Ink pad (optional)

When markings become faint, supply the ink to the ink pad.

1 Remove the ink pad.

Push the left side of the pad and pull it out of the holder.

perform the following adjustment.

1 Remove the lens table lever a .

Pull it out straight.
a b
2 Loosen the setscrew b on the adjustable screw
with a flatblade screwdriver.

3 Rotate the adjustable screw to adjust the feel of

the lens table lever movement.
Rotate the screw without rotating the center shaft.

Clockwise rotation The lens table lever feels heavier.

Counterclockwise rotation The lens table lever feels lighter.

• The rotation range of the adjustable screw is up to one rotation in either clockwise or counterclockwise
direction from the factory setting.
