   Therefore, a -1.00DC will be inserted into the trial frames at 180°, and an additional +0.50DS is also added to compensate for the spherical equivalent. 3) REFINE CYLINDER AXIS Once again the patient's fixation is directed to a round letter on the chart. The 0.50JCC is presented straddling the axis of the cylinder lens in the trial frames. [6]

3. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

   Using a phoropter to determine a prescription for eyeglasses. An eyeglass prescription is an order written by an eyewear prescriber, such as an optometrist, that specifies the value of all parameters the prescriber has deemed necessary to construct and/or dispense corrective lenses appropriate for a patient.

4. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_distance

   A phoropter measurement of a patient reads −8.00 D sphere and −5.25 D cylinder with an axis of 85° for one eye (the notation for which is typically written as −8 −5.25×85). The phoropter measurement is made at a common vertex distance of 12 mm from the eye.

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. 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 ...
