Abstract: Provided are an ophthalmic instrument, an image generation device, a program, and an ophthalmic system capable of allowing a patient to directly experience and confirm how vision will actually appear following surgery. The ophthalmic instrument includes a light source, an optical system that guides light emitted from the light source onto a retina of a subject eye, a communication section that receives a simulation image generated based on optometry information for the subject eye and intraocular lens information relating to an intraocular lens prescribable for the subject eye, the simulation image corresponding to how vision would appear in a case in which the intraocular lens is prescribed for the subject eye, and a control section that controls the light source and the optical system such that the simulation image received by the communication section is projected onto the retina.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing an optical member includes a crystal growing step and a carving step. The crystal growing step includes melting a mixture of fluoride powder and a scavenger at a melting temperature of a melting point for the fluoride and above, and then crystallizing the melted fluid and further cooling down an obtained fluoride crystal in a temperature range from 1000° C. to 900° C. by a temperature decreasing rate in a range from 0.1 to 5° C./hr. The carving step includes carving an optical member out of the fluoride crystal obtained in the crystal growing step such that the optical member is made of a fluoride crystal in which a maximum diameter dmax of scattering bodies existing internally and a quantity ns of the scattering bodies per 1 cm3 satisfy a condition represented by the following formula (1): 0<dmax2×ns<6.5×10?4(cm?1).

Abstract: A strippable paint is poured down onto coated surfaces 1, 2 and 3 of an automobile V within regions to be protected, from a plurality of nozzles 10 disposed in parallel in a widthwise direction of the automobile V above the coated surfaces 1, 2 and 3 of the automobile V, while controlling the number of nozzles which are used to discharge the strippable paint, in accordance with the extent of the regions to be protected. Thereafter, the strippable paint is spread over an entirety of the coated surfaces 1, 2 and 3 in the regions to be protected. Thus, the region covered by each of the nozzles can be relatively reduced to efficiently carry out the pouring-down of the strippable paint and to prevent dusts of a coating material from being scattered to a wide range. In addition, the need for a masking step and/or an inspecting/correcting step can be eliminated to reduce the operating steps and further to alleviate the operational load.

Abstract: In peeling off, from a coating surface, temporarily protecting coating films formed by applying a protecting coating material onto the coating surface after completion of the coating, high-pressure water is jetted toward between the coating surface and end edges of the temporarily protecting coating films to peel off the end edges from the coating surface. Then, the high-pressure water is jetted sequentially to between the coating surface and peeled-off portions of the temporarily protecting coating films from the coating surface to peel off the entire temporarily protecting coating films from the coating surface. Thus, the temporarily protecting coating films can be easily peeled off without being influenced by the temperature of an environment, leading to a shortened peeling-off time.
