Abstract: A spectacle lens supply method for a system which includes a terminal installed at a lens orderer side and at least a computing device installed at a lens processor side and connected to the terminal via a communication line, for supplying spectacle lenses. In the lens supply method, the terminal transmits processing condition data including at least one of lens information, frame information, prescription values, layout information and processing information to the computing device, and the computing device calculates a desired lens shape including a bevel figure based on the received processing condition data, creates accept/reject information as to whether a lens process including beveling is possible or not, based on the result of the calculation, and transmits the accept/reject information to the terminal, which information is displayed at the terminal to permit the lens orderer to learn whether the lens process including beveling is possible or not.

Abstract: In an apparatus for measuring a configuration of each of a pair of lens frames (4a, 4b) of a spectacle framework (3), a measuring element (230) is arranged for horizontal and vertical movement relative to the lens frames fixedly held by a holding device (100). The measuring element is movable angularly about an optional reference point (O) within one of the lens frames, along an inner periphery of the lens frame, while causing the measuring element to be in contact with the inner periphery of the lens frame. A first detector unit (224) detects horizontal straight displacement (r) of the measuring element from the reference point. A second detector unit (233) detects vertical straight displacement (z) of the measuring element from the reference point. A third detector unit (209) detects an angle (.theta.) of the angular movement of the measuring element about the reference point.
