A polarizing spectacle lens having a perfect blocking of ultraviolet light and a partial blocking of blue light and having photochromic properties has been developed. It is a functional spectacle lens which can be used as a spectacle lens in the daytime, which plays a role of sunglass in a space with strong ultraviolet rays, dramatically reducing glare caused by late-night driving or reflected light. Photochromism was recovered in 0.5 second dark reaction and 3 seconds recovery time. The polarization function was about 95%. Ultraviolet rays were completely blocked and blue light was reduced by about 30%. A lens that combines photochromic and UV blocking and polarization functions is the first attempt at investigating the domestic market.

Purpose: The accuracy for measuring the refractive power of hydrogel contact lenses by spectacle lens holder and contact lens holder was evaluated. The accuracy for each sample was also analyzed with water content and diopter categories. Methods: The hydrogel contact lenses used for measurement were classified into three categories in water content (38%, 43%, 58%). Also, three diopter categories of refractive power were used such as -3.000 D, -7.000 D, -10.000 D. And also, the reliability of measurement results were evaluated by measuring refractive power with spectacle lens holder and contact lens holder using an Manual lensmeter. Results: In case of spectacle lens holder method, the average value of refractive power was -3.3273D for -3.0000 D, -7.1306 D for -7.0000 D and -10.2944 D for -10.0000 D, respectively. In case of contact lens holder method, the average value of refractive power was -3.1060 D for -3.0000 D, -7.0028 D for -7.0000 D and -10.2611 D for -10.0000 D, respectively. In measurement of all diopters, the accuracy of contact lens holder method was better than spectacle lens holder method. Conclusions: From these results, it is judged that the refractive power of soft contact lens by manual lensmeter with contact lens holder have a higher accuracy than spectacle lens holder.

In this paper, the front radiuses of curvature of spherical spectacle lenses in the cosmetic and optical point of view are investigated and are calculated using Zinken-Sommer condition. The optical power of all spherical spectacle lens shows good quality at the test using autometic lensmeter. However the front radiuses of curvature of spherical spectacle lenses are quite different depending on the lens companies. The front radius of curvature of those lenses is larger than that calculated using Zinken-Sommer condition. We know that the front radius of curvature of commercial spectacle lens is emphasized more cosmetic aspect than optical point of view.

Purpose: Analysis performance for spectacle lens which sales in domestic market and optimization design a spectacle lens which is corrected aberration. Methods: Measured center thickness, radius and aspherical surface coefficient for spherical and aspherical lenses which were ${\pm}$5.00D. Refractive index for every lens was 1.6 and they came from 4 different companies. I used 3 types of equipment to measure lenses. ID-F150 (Mitutoyo) : Center Thickness, FOCOVISION (SR-2, Automation Robotics) : Radius, PGI 1240S (Taylor Hobson) : Aspherical surface coefficient. Designed a lens which had 27 mm of distance from lens rear surface to center of eye, 4 mm of pupil diameter and small aberration on center vision $30^{\circ}C$. To shorten axial distance compared with the measured lens rise merits for cosmetic. Lens Design tool was CODE V (Optical Research Associates). Results: -5.00D aspherical lens had somewhat high astigmatism and distortion compared with the spherical lens. But it had a merit for cosmetic because of short axial height and decrease edge thickness. Improved a performance of distortion and ascertain merits for cosmetic due to short axial height and decrease edge thickness same as (-) lens in case of +5.00 aspherical lens. Though an optimization process front surface aspherical lens had a good performance for astigmatism and distortion and the merit for beauty compared with measured spherical lens. Conclusions: Design trend for domestic aspherical lens is decrease axial height and thickness to increase a merit for cosmetic not but increase performance of aberration. From design theory for optimization design front surface aspherical spectacle lens which has improved performance of aberration and merit for cosmetic at the same time compared with the measured lens. Expect an improved performance from design back aspherical lens compared with front aspherical lens.

We have studied the astigmatism according to the bevel position and the tilting(pantoscopic) angle of decentered spectacle lens for prism prescription. For prism prescription, generally we make a general spectacle lens into decentered spectacle lens. At this time the bevel position of decentered lens is a important matter, because the difference between optic axis and visual axis occur aberrations. Using the calculation we find that the case that the axis of bevel rotation band passes the front curvature center of (+) lens has a smaller astigmatism than the case that the axis of bevel rotation band passes the rear curvature center of (+) lens and that the case that the axis of bevel rotation band passes the rear curvature center of (-) lens has a smaller astigmatism than the case that the axis of bevel rotation band passes the front curvature center of (-) lens. We find the lens with higher refraction index has a smaller astigmatism.

Purpose: This study is to evaluate reliability of geometrical optics properties of spectacle lenses by using ISO and the medical instrument standard of KFDA, which are being sold in Korea. Methods: We used samples of three hundred and ninety eight spectacle lenses of eight company in total. Refractive indices of each samples which were used in experiment were classified into three groups of medium index (1.55~1.56), high index (1.60~1.61) and extra high index (1.67). Results: Conformity of refractive power was 81.61% in total spectacle lenses. The results showed that thickness conformity 90%, appearance conformity 85.18%, size conformity 96.23% and optical center point conformity 99.50% in total. Conclusions: We found that they deviated from the permitting value in many spectacle lenses on refractive power. The results of errors on prism power, surface inspection and optical center point showed small values in total products. In experiment of lens size and thickness, the bulk of indication rates and conformities of samples deviated from the permitting errors.

Purpose: To determine whether the accommodation of amplitude (AA) was changed by the color of the spectacle lens or object. Methods: AA was measured in forty subjects in their 20s when they viewed different targeton-background color combination with achromatic, gray, brown or green lens. Minus-lens procedures were used for the estimation of AA. Results: When subjects viewed the black-on-white, red-on-white and green-on-white targets, AA under tinted lens tended to be increased compared with AA under achromatic lens. Especially, the green lens significantly increased AA whatever the color of target was. Furthermore, as subjects viewed the green target, AA was the highest irrespective of the color of lens. AA was also changed depending on the color of background, so AA on the red background was lower than on the white background. On the contrary, AA on the green background was higher than on the red or white backgrounds. Of tinted lens, the gray lens increased AA the lowest, but the green lens did the highest. The number of subjects, whose AA were measured more than 9 D, reached to 12.5% with the gray lens, 21.3% with the brown lens, 22.5% with the green lens on the green background, but 5%, 6.5% and 6.5% on the red background, respectively. Conclusions: This results showed that AA varied depending on the color of spectacle lens, objects or background, and the eye fatigue could be decreased with proper color of spectacle lens accordingly.
