Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the main disadvantage of this measuring device is that its accuracy is insufficient, especially when measuring local optical powers
Significantly poorer performance in terms of accuracy, especially compared to front focal length meter type devices that perform local measurements through the end piece

Abstract

The invention concerns a method comprising a step of contact-free optical measuring of the local value of at least one optical refraction characteristic of said lens on a local zone delimited about said measuring point of the lens, at least one step of tracing said lens during which the axial position of said measuring point on one of the sides of the lens is determined; combining the axial position of the measuring point obtained by tracing with the local value of the lens optical characteristic at the measuring point determined on the basis of the contact-free optical measurement, to deduce therefrom at least one front optical power of the lens in that measuring point.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to mounting lenses of a pair of vision correcting eyeglasses in a frame, and more particularly, to a method and apparatus for preparing lenses of a pair of eyeglasses to be fitted into a frame selected by a user, and includes a Probe devices are devices that combine to perform an overall non-contact optical measurement of the local optical properties of the lens. Background technique [0002] Measuring devices are known, working either automatically or manually, for measuring and checking various properties of monofocal or progressive addition lenses by carrying out an optical analysis without contact, before or after the lens is mounted on the frame, In particular its power and centering or identifying properties to produce a holistic map. In particular, one such device is known from the document French patent 2 825 466 (which is equivalent to US patent 2003 / 0015649 published on January 23, 2003). In such a me...
