Contact Lens
The procedure for measuring a contact lens is identical to measur-
ing framed lenses, however the correct contact lens type must be
selected in the Setup menu (either hard or soft contacts) and the
lens stand must be replaced with the contact lens stand.
1. To measure hard contact lenses, select “H CL” in the Setup
menu. To measure soft contact lenses, select “S CL” in the
Setup menu.
2. Change the lens stand from the standard lens stand to the con-
tact lens stand. Refer to Figure OP-22.
3. Place the contact lens on the contact lens stand.
Note:
Remove the water or moisture from the lens, and set it on
the stand, being careful not to distort it. Take the measure-
ment quickly.
Note:
A bifocal contact lens cannot be measured.
4. Holding the contact lens stand, lower the lens holder.
5. Center the green Cross Cursor mark by moving the lens. Re-
fer to Figure OP-23.
6. The message “Alignment OK” will appear on the screen when
the lens is aligned properly. Refer to Figure OP-24.
Note:
The Alignment Mark represents the optical center of the
lensmeter and the Cross Cursor represents the optical cen-
ter of the lens.
7. Press the Memory/Add button to store the Sphere, Cylinder,
Axis and Prism measurements.
Note:
If “Auto Memory” in the Setup screen is set to “On”, then the
lens will automatically be measured once the Cross Cursor
is centered in the middle of the Alignment Mark.
Note:
When the optical center is found, either automatically or
by pressing the Memory/Add button, the Cross Cursor will
change from green to blue, and the measurement box will
change from gray to blue. Refer to Figure OP-24.
8. To measure the other lens, select the L/R icon to switch to the
other lens. Follow the above steps to measure the other con-
tact lens. Refer to Figure OP-25.
9. When finished, print, transfer or clear the data by pressing the
corresponding button.
