How To Use The Lensmeter To Read A Spherocylinder Lens

This week, we learn to use the lensmeter to read the prescription of a spherocylinder single-vision lens, including the sphere power, the cylinder power and the axis. The Learn the Lensmeter kits are available for OpticianWorks Total Access members to check out. Instructions for requesting yours are in the OpticianWorks lesson on using the lensmeter (focimeter, vertometer). Each kit contains various types of lenses, frame fronts and assignments, to give you the ability to gain some practical experience. Learn More: opticianworks.com/

Laramy-K Optical is a digital uncut and coating lab unlike any other. The only exclusively uncut lab in the country; we provide our customers with independent, high-end alternatives to corporate brands. Through craftsmanship, technology, and independent, innovative vendors like Younger, IOT, A&R, and Quantum Innovations we offer our customers the Integrity portfolio of freeform lenses and coatings. Made in the USA, the Integrity brand is not a generic house-brand, but is the absolute best available, designed to give the wearer that “wow!” experience.

In addition to the digital line, we still offer conventional surfacing, including glass. Maintaining traditional equipment gives our customers vastly more flexibility in their dispensing, particularly when it comes to more difficult prescriptions.
