Determine Trial Lens
If you are not using the automatic trial lens calculation refer to the following guidelines for selecting
manual trial lenses.
Guidelines for Trial Lens Selection
1. Ignore cylinders of 0.25 D or less.
2. For cylinder errors of up to 1.75 D use the spherical equivalent. Use the full cylinder correction
for cylinder errors of 1.75 D or more.
3. Refer to
for hyperopic or emmetropic patients, or
for myopic patients, to
determine the power of the spherical trial lens needed.
4. Verify that the patient can see the fixation light clearly through the trial lens before beginning
testing. Young myopes may need additional minus power if the target appears blurry to them,
prior to beginning testing. Many 30–40 year olds may not need the full trial lens correction.
How to Calculate the Spherical Equivalent
The spherical equivalent is equal to half of the power of the cylinder (DC) correction. For example,
the spherical equivalent of +1.00 DC is +0.50 D. The spherical equivalent of –0.50 DC is –0.25 D.
Add the spherical equivalent of the cylinder power to the original spherical power to get the overall
spherical equivalent.
