Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining at least one geometrico-morphological parameter of a subject for determining a vision correction equipment, wherein the following steps are performed: a) determining the height of one of the eyes of the subject (P) relative to a reference horizontal surface; b) placing a visual target in front of the head (HP) of the subject (P) at a predetermined position, this predetermined position being determined taking into account the height of one of the eyes of the subject relative to the reference horizontal surface, determined in step a); c) while the subject gazes at the visual target placed at the predetermined position in step b), capturing an image of the head (HP) of the subject (P) with an image capture apparatus (50); and d) deducing from the image captured in step c) the at least one geometrico-morphological parameter.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a system that has a processor for executing computer-executable instructions and a computer-readable storage media for storing the computer-executable instructions. These instructions, when executed by the processor, enable the system to receive prescription data of a patient for corrective lenses and image data associated with the face of the patient. The system is configured to determine lens attributes for the patient based upon the prescription data and also determine facial attributes of the patient from the image data. Based on the lens attributes and the facial attributes of the patient, the system determines at least one frame recommendation for the patient.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method of manufacturing an ophthalmic lens, comprising the steps of providing, mounting and blocking a substrate (10) on a machining support unit (65), surfacing an upper face (12) of said substrate, edging a peripheral edge (13) of said substrate, wherein said machining support unit comprises a surfacing member (40) and an edging member (30) which are separable, said surfacing member having a cavity (51) in which said edging member is located during said step of surfacing, said surfacing and edging members being configured so that said substrate is mounted and blocked on said machining support unit in a first predetermined position for the surfacing and the edging and, between said steps of surfacing and edging, the method comprises the step of withdrawing said surfacing member from said machining support unit by retaining said substrate on said edging member.

Abstract: An index value is calculated for rating an eyeglass with respect to protection against UV hazard. The index value is based on an integrated UV transmission value through the eyeglass and an integrated UV reflection value related to a back face of the eyeglass. Thus, the index value takes into account actual wearing conditions where UV eye exposure is due either to transmission through the eyeglass or reflection on the eyeglass back face. Respective index values obtained for a set of eyeglasses allow easy sorting of the eyeglasses with respect to UV protection efficiency.
