Lensometer

Key Features

• Optical power measurement: The primary function of a lensometer is to measure the sphere, cylinder, and axis of a lens, which are the key components of a lens prescription for correcting refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism.
• Prism power detection: The device can also measure any prism correction in the lens, which is used to address issues such as double vision or misalignment of the eyes.
• Focal length determination: It identifies the focal point of the lens, confirming that it is consistent with the prescribed correction.
• Eyeglass verification:It is commonly used to verify the accuracy of the prescription in eyeglasses by checking the lens power before dispensing them to the patient.
