Measurement of spectacle lenses using wavefront aberration in real view condition

A wavefront aberration analysis method for measuring spectacle lenses in real-view condition is proposed and verified using experimental apparatus based on the eye-rotation model. Two strategies-feedback positioning and posture adjustment of incident beams and Hartmann-Shack wavefront-aberration sensor calibration at each measurement subarea-are applied to improve measurement accuracy. By simulating the real-view condition, wavefront aberration and user power on the vertex sphere can be obtained. Comparison experiments demonstrate the validity and accuracy of the proposed method and experimental apparatus. Freeform progressive addition lenses are also measured and the results analyzed. The findings provide a possible approach for optimizing the design of spectacle lenses and evaluating their manufacturing and imaging quality.
