Laboratory of Ophthalmic Optics II 1100-3BO22
The aim of classes in the lab is to consolidate and further develop the skills of making glasses corrections with given parameters and broadening and deepening the knowledge acquired on lecture: Ophtalmic optics I and II and Ophtalmic Optics Laboratory I course . During classes, students learn methods of lens processing
glasses made of various materials and acquire practice in marking
pupil distance and adjustment of ready-made glasses.
1.Determination of pupillary distance using a pupillary lens and a pupillometer.
2. Determining the mounting height of a spectacle lens using the pupil ruler
and devices intended for this purpose
3. Measurement of the pantoscopic angle using the pupil ruler and other devices
intended.
4. Measurements of assembly parameters using the system
videocentration
5. Measurements of glasses parameters using an automatic lensmeter
6. Measurements of uncut spherical and toric lenses using
lensmeter
7. Making eyeglass lenses on grinding machines and making cuts
in lenses using a manual grooving machine and assembly in a semi-rimless frame
8. Processing plastic lenses on a manual grinder and framing the lens
trimmed in a metal and plastic frame.
9.Making glasses with given parameters on manual grinders and
automatic grinding machines (spherical, toric, bifocal, prismatic lenses)
10.Reading the power and assembly parameters of ready-made glasses (lenses
spherical, toric, bifocal, progressive)
11.Adjusting glasses (earpieces, nose pads, adjusting the angle of the frame curvature angle, pantoscopic angle)
12. Minor repairs (replacement of nose pads, replacement of screw, use of filler in
mounting groove in the spectacle frame, replacement of the pressure cable and type 8 line in the groove of the string holder)
13. Assessment of the correctness of the glasses made
