The assembly of camera lens modules fur the mobile phone has not been automated so far. They are still assembled manually because of high precision of all parts and hard-to-recognize lens by vision camera. In addition, the very short life cycle of the camera phone lens requires flexible and intelligent automation. This study proposes a fast and accurate identification system of the parts by distributing the camera for 4 degree of freedom assembly robot system. Single or multi-cameras can be installed according to the part's image capture and processing mode. It has an agile structure which enables adaptation with the minimal job change. The framework is proposed and the experimental result is shown to prove the effectiveness.

Todays in the field of lens makers, the technology machinery equipment and investment is shrunken by many factors. But much more decisive investment is wanted to strengthen competitiveness. Most of all, the technology of management and quality examination is important in the confidence of lens. So external and internal examination must be accomplished scientifically not by macrography but by the microscope and the computer. As the hardness examination of glass in the automobile, that of spectacle lens must not be harmful to the human body. All the raw material of spectacle lens is being imported for the lack of technology. To overcome these circumstances. We must establish the research institute that can develop the technology and must train a technical expert.

Purpose: The present study was conducted to analyze any difference in the movement of aspheric RGP lens by the amounts of keratometiric astigmatisms using keratometer and corneal topography. Methods: Corneal curvatures in thirty six eyes of males and females of with-the-rule keratometric astigmatisms in their twenties were measured by a keratometer and worn aspheric RGP lenses. Then, lens rotations, vertical and horizontal movements of lens by blinking were measured to compare with lens movements when aspheric RGP lenses were fitted by total keratometric astigmatisms using corneal topography. Results: The case having higher amount of central keratometric astigmatism was 61.1% of subjects, however, 36.1% of subjects showed higher total keratometric astigmatism indicating that central keratometric astigmatism was not always bigger than total keratometric astigmatism. Since over 0.25 diopter difference between total and central keratometric astigmatisms was shown in 19 eyes (52.8% of subjects), the prescription for lens fitting could be changed. Significant difference in horizontal movement was detected with increase of astigmatism when it compared based on the amount of keratometric astigmatism measured by a keratometer. However, there was no significant difference in lens rotation, horizontal and vertical movements by comparison with the amount of total keratometric astigmatism using a corneal topography. When central keratometric astigmatism measured by keratometer was bigger than total keratometric astigmatism estimated by corneal topography, bigger lens rotation was shown compared with opposite case. Also, the tendency of bigger lens rotation was measured with the increase of keratomatric astigmatism in the case of same prescription having same base curves with same amount of keratometric astigmatism but different curvatures. Conclusions: From the present study, we concluded that lens movements on cornea were not totally different when aspheric RGP lens fitted on with-the-rule astigmatism by keratometer and corneal topography. However, there was some difference in certain lens movements. Therefore, we concluded that further study on the relationship between the prescriptions for lens fitting should be conducted for improving the rate of successful lens fitting by keratometer or for the proper application of corneal topography for lens fitting.

Purpose: The present study was conducted to compare the centration of RGP lens on cornea when lens was fitted based on keratometric astigmatisms measured by keratometer and the lens centration when fitted by corneal topography. Methods: Thirty eight eyes of 19 male and female in their twenties were applied RGP lens with 9.9 mm of diameter by the keratometric astigmatisms classified by the measurement with a keratometer. Then, lens centrations were estimated using high speed camera and compared with the lens centration when fitted by total keratometric astigmatism using corneal topography. The relationship of the steepest location of cornea and lens centration was further compared. Results: With the rule astigmatism, lens centration was not changed even with the difference in central and total keratometric astigmatisms. When the relationship of the steepest part of cornea measured by corneal topography and lens centration was analyzed, the lens centration in vertical direction was exactly correlated with the steepest part of cornea in 52.3% of subjects. In the case of non-correlation, the steepest part of cornea was mostly upper part of cornea, however, lens centration was located on lower part of cornea. The lens centration in horizontal direction was exactly correlated with the steepest region of cornea in 65.6% of subjects. In non-correlated case, the difference in cornea curvatures between the steepest and the flattest parts was smaller than 0.05 mm in 76.9% of subjects. Conclusions: From these results, we conclude that corneal topographic patterns may more contribute the centration of RGP lens on cornea than the difference in central and total keratometric astigmatisms.

When we wear contact lenses for correcting astigmatism, we often experience the axis-rotation of contact lenses that is happened in case we could not fit the axis of lens exactly or by the eyelid used to blink. In this case, because the exact correcting state becomes in the wrongly correcting state, the asthenopia is led, and the decline of eyesight can be led. For this reason, we need to know axis-rotating degrees of contact lenses. If a contact lens rotated, a residual astigmatism may be detected in the refraction examination after wearing. Using this, we developed a program that calculates the axis-rotating amount of contact lenses.

Ultra precise processed parts are required together with the development of optoelectronics industry. As important parts of optoelectronics industry, there are ferrule of optical connector and lens for optical devices. In particular, the lens requires high reliability with high precision without including flaws. These optical modules need ultra precise processing in order to reduce the loss of light sources and various nondestructive inspections are carried out in the finishing stage to separate good and bad quality products. Therefore, it was analyzed through the characteristics of response of amplitude and resonant frequency according to the mass variations of aspheric lens that is used currently in laser printers.

Purpose: This study was to evaluate the clinical performance of 1-Day disposable toric soft contact lenses (TSCL) and to compare the visual performance with glasses and TSCL. Methods: In a two-week investigation of 'prism ballast' designed TSCL, occular refractions in 15 (30 eyes) healthy subjects were within the range of -2.75 D TO -8.00 D spherical power and -0.75 DC to -2.25 DC cylinderical power (with-the-rule). Subjects were assessed the clinical performance (orientation, centration, movement, tightness, rotation recovery, symptoms) of TSCL and compared binocular vision and contrast sensitivity with corrected glasses and TSCL at initial and two-week follow-up visits. Results: The prism-ballast design TSCL achieved better orientation, rotation recovery and symptoms over 2 week period. There was no statistically significant difference between spectacles and TSCL with respect to measuring binocular vision and contrast sensitivity. Conclusions: The clinical performance was good with prism-ballast design toric soft contact lenses. Evaluation of binocular vision and contrast sensitivity did not show the differences between spectacles and TSCL correction. This study suggests that TSCL wearers can be achieved similar visual performance for spectacles wearers.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to propose effective data for the clinical examinations of binocular vision by comparative analysis of measuring the near horizontal phoria according to accommodative stimulations. Methods: It carried out near horizontal phorias, targeting 104 college students (50 males and 54 females) aged between 19 and 24 ($20.27{\pm}1.31$). It made a comparative analysis of changes in near horizontal phoria according to accommodative stimulations by using the von Graefe, Maddox rod and the Howell phoria methods respectively. We have also investigated the AC/A ratio in all phoria groups. Results: As the additional lenses were changed to the negative (-) diopter, the near horizontal phoria changed to the esodeviation. At this time, the rate of change in the section signifies the AC/A ratio, and the values were not consistent based on the evaluating methods or on each section. The AC/A ratio of the esophoria group appeared the largest value in all groups. As a result of analyzing AC/A ratio at the exophoria group using the von Graefe method, the AC/A ratio was $1.568{\pm}1.937$ ${\Delta}/D$ on the additional lenses +2.00 D and $2.527{\pm}2.253$ ${\Delta}/D$ on the additional lenses -1.00 D and at the esophoria group using the Howell phoria method, the AC/A ratio was $5.521{\pm}1.337$ ${\Delta}/D$, $5.593{\pm}1.623$ ${\Delta}/D$ on the additional lenses +2.00 D, +1.00 D and $4.687{\pm}1.643$ ${\Delta}/D$ on the additional lenses -2.00 D. These were significant differences statistically. Conclusions: In the exophoria group, when the (-) lenses were added, the averages of the AC/A ratio were shown to be high but in the esophoria group, when the (+) lenses were added, the of AC/A ratio was high.

Purpose: The clinical usefulness of rotation evaluation using objective refraction in toric soft lenses fitting was investigated. Methods: Toric soft lenses were fitted for 32 subjects (64 eyes; mean age of 24.69 ${\pm}$ 1.65 years) with astigmatism and both eyes of each subject were fitted with toric soft lenses. Objective refraction-based lenses rotation was evaluated from refraction and over-refraction data by indirect calculating technique. These calculated data were compared with the measured data from slit lamp with direct measuring technique. Results: Orientation of toric soft lenses around zero position (within ${\pm}$ 5$^{\circ}$ vertical line) was investigated. The orientations to the direction of nose of measured and calculated values were 69.78% and 63.64%, respectively, which showed similar values between two techniques. Agreement frequency between measured and calculated values in the magnitude of lenses rotation 54.69% and 82.82% for 10$^{\circ}$ and 20$^{\circ}$ of vertical line, respectively. The 95% limits of agreement between calculation and measurement were from -10.08$^{\circ}$ to 12.65$^{\circ}$, and mean difference was 1.29$^{\circ}$ within ${\pm}$ 10$^{\circ}$. The result showed there was no significant difference (p = 0.1984) and high correlation (r = 0.56, p = 0.0004) between two techniques. But the 95% limits of agreement was widen in ${\pm}$ 20$^{\circ}$ of vertical line. The magnitude of lens rotation between two methods was 9.66 ${\pm}$ 6.16$^{\circ}$, 16.17 ${\pm}$ 12.38$^{\circ}$ and 10.58 ${\pm}$ 12.02$^{\circ}$ for normal, loose and tight fitted conditions. Conclusions: From the results with smaller difference between two techniques, it was found that higher availability of subjective over-refraction data can be used as a supplementary tool for subjective refraction. An application using objective refraction with direct measuring could be provide high success in prescription on toric soft lenses.
