2. Subjective refraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_refraction

   The cylinder power is refined by superimposing the 0.50JCC over the correcting cylinder axis in the trial frames. The patient is asked to indicate whether it is clearer with or without the lens. Dioptric changes are then made in 0.25 increments in order refine cylindrical correction.

3. Lensmeter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lensmeter

   The parameters appraised by a lensmeter are the values specified by an ophthalmologist or optometrist on the patient's prescription: sphere, cylinder, axis, add, and in some cases, prism. The lensmeter is also used to check the accuracy of progressive lenses , and is often capable of marking the lens center and various other measurements ...

4. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

   A spherical lens has the same curvature in every direction perpendicular to the optical axis. Spherical lenses are adequate correction when a person has no astigmatism. To correct for astigmatism, the "cylinder" and "axis" components specify how a particular lens is different from a lens composed of purely spherical surfaces.

5. Autorefractor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autorefractor

   By measuring this zone, the autorefractor can determine when a patient's eye properly focuses an image. The instrument changes its magnification until the image comes into focus. The process is repeated in at least three meridians of the eye and the autorefractor calculates the refraction of the eye, sphere, cylinder and axis.

6. Ophthalmic trial frame - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ophthalmic_trial_frame

   An ideal trial frame have minimum 3 cells, one each for holding spherical lens, cylindrical lens and other tools like occluder or pinhole. [4] Angle for axis of astigmatism is marked on outermost visible cell There are knobes to adjust pupillary distance, side angle, height and cylindrical lens axis. [5]
