New Application of Selection of Customized Lens Fitting in Optometry Services

Article Preview

Abstract:

Judging from existing technologies, using human eye measurement devices to obtain individual relevant optical feature parameters is no longer difficult. These parameters allow us to construct an eye model for individual eyeballs. Such customized eye models are used to select appropriate glass material for each lens fitting to achieve a relatively minimal degree of spherical aberration. However, due to the variety of glass materials, the selection process is time consuming and not cost-effective. Therefore, it is necessary to design a set of feasible methods to select appropriate glass material quickly. In this study, then, we used the CODE V macro programming language to develop a new set of methods for glass selection. Glass with a smaller degree of spherical aberration and lower cost was selected via automatic algorithm to be applied in customized lens fitting. This method was validated as feasible and practical based on experimental results, and this method can greatly increase the degree of customization in lens fitting.
