A moderate concave lens is worn as a treatment for myopia.

In the hyperopia information database, the degree of hyperopia, the type of hyperopia, and the hyperopia treatment method are registered and managed. In addition, hyperopia is an eye in which parallel rays entering the eye form an image at a point behind the retina when the eye is not adjusting at all (far point is finite posterior).

The degree of hyperopia is represented by the reciprocal of the far-point distance (for example, far-point distance = 50 cm1 / 0.5 = 2D).

The type of hyperopia is represented by the frequency, for example, as follows.

Mild hyperopia (+ 4D), moderate hyperopia (+ 4D to + 7D), strong hyperopia (+ 7D) Wear moderate convex lens as a treatment for hyperopia.

In the astigmatism information database, the degree of astigmatism, the type of astigmatism, and the treatment method are registered. Managed. In addition, astigmatism means that the parallel rays entering the eye do not form a single point when the eye is not adjusting at all.

The types of astigmatism are as follows.

Regular astigmatism (the asymmetry of the refractive surface is symmetric)

Treatment of astigmatism is as follows.

Uniform astigmatism (with a moderate cylindrical lens)

Illegal astigmatism (contact lens wearing)

3—3: How to measure eyesight

First, an outline of a method for measuring naked-eye visual acuity performed by the visual acuity measuring device 103 in the counter-booth 1 will be described.

① The user closes one eye with his hand and looks at the naked eye visual acuity measurement screen (Figure 22) with one eye. The naked-eye visual acuity measurement screen (Fig. 22) shows the point of gaze with one eye.

(2) The user fixes the neck and keeps the distance from the naked eye visual acuity measurement screen (Fig. 22) constant. For example, put your neck on the palm of your hand to secure your face and your elbows on the desk.

(3) Using the visual acuity measuring device 103, the Landolt ring 1.0 of the visual acuity chart is displayed at the point “X” on the screen.

The visual acuity measuring device 103 determines the distance from the naked eye visual acuity measurement screen (FIG. 22) and displays a visual acuity table having a size corresponding to the visual acuity of 1.0.

で Look at the Landolt ring in the eyesight chart (Fig. 23) with one eye

により Using the eyesight measuring device 103, ask the evening touch panel 107 by a message on the screen or by voice asking "Can you see where the wheel is vacant?" ⑥If you can see it, touch the evening switch (voice response) at “YES” on the evening switch panel 107. Further, the visual acuity measuring apparatus 103 sends the inquiry screen to the evening touch panel 107, and continues to ask the question "Where is free" on the evening touch panel 107, and the direction in which the Landolt ring is empty To select from eight directions: “up, down, left, right, upper left, lower left, upper right, lower right” and make the button on the panel 107 appear (answer by voice). If the direction is correct, display a 1.2 eyesight chart and repeat the same procedure.

⑦ If you cannot see it or the direction in which it is vacant is wrong, display a visual acuity table lower than the visual acuity before the visual acuity measuring device 103 on the touch panel 107 and repeat the same procedure.

⑧ The visual acuity measuring device 103 determines the correct frequency immediately before visual acuity in which two mistakes have been made consecutively as naked eye visual acuity.

⑨ Next, do the same for the other eye. .

Next, a method of measuring the corrected visual acuity performed by the visual acuity measuring device 103 in the counter booth 1 will be described.

(1) The visual acuity measuring device 103 inputs naked eye visual acuity data.

As naked eye visual acuity data,

Data measured by the procedure of the above-mentioned “Measurement method for naked eye vision”

Ophthalmologist prescription data

There is previous eyesight data managed by the lens processing center 1002.

(2) The lens processing center 1002 converts the corrected eyesight measurement data using a lens so that the corrected eyesight has a degree of 1.2 on a one-by-one basis based on the input naked eye eyesight data. 1 is transmitted to the user terminal 101 and displayed on the visual acuity measuring device 103. That is, the “Landolt ring that is likely to be seen” is displayed on the corrected visual acuity measurement screen of the visual acuity measuring device 103. (3) With the eyesight measuring device 103, the Landolt ring displayed on the screen of the eyesight measuring device 103 is measured with the naked eye with one eye closed, and the degree of visibility around 1.2 degrees is measured. .

見え If you can see well, touch the check button “Look well” on the evening touch panel 107. When the evening is seen, the eyesight measuring device 103 judges the frequency as the corrected eyesight.

If it is not clearly visible, touching the check button “I cannot see well” on the touch panel 107 will cause the eyesight measuring device 103 to determine that it is astigmatism, and proceed to the step of testing for astigmatism.

In the astigmatism inspection step, a visual acuity chart showing the Landolt ring with a mouth directly above, four Landolt rings with a mouth at 90 degrees left, and 90 degrees to the right 90 degrees right above the eyesight measuring device 103 was used. Displayed, the user can judge the astigmatism and the axis of astigmatism based on the appearance of the Landolt ring on the corrected vision measurement screen. The frequency determination points during astigmatism measurement are as follows.

① By rotating the Landolt ring slowly, it will be checked whether there is a position where the break of the Landolt ring is connected. If there is a position where it is connected, at that point, use the joystick 103 b on the post-correction visual acuity measurement screen. To instruct. The axis of astigmatism (A XI S) is specified by the eyesight measuring device 103 based on the designated position.

The same test is performed several times, and if there is a variation, the visual acuity measuring device 103 displays the corrected visual acuity measurement screen to which the spherical power (S PH) is added, and performs the same test again.

If the cut is not continuous, the visual acuity measuring device 103 does not have astigmatism by pressing the check button `` not connected '' on the corrected visual acuity measuring screen of the touch panel 107. to decide (2) Furthermore, the visual acuity measuring device 103 displays a radial index image, and the visual acuity measuring device 103 determines the positions of the darkest and lightest lines on the corrected visual acuity measurement screen. By instructing the position with the joystick 103b, the visual acuity measuring device 103 specifies the axis of astigmatism (AXIS).

③ If astigmatism can be identified, a visual acuity chart showing the Landolt's ring after correcting astigmatism is displayed on the screen, and the appearance is checked.
