Abstract: A method of taking an ophthalmic measurement is carried out with an electronic handheld device having a touchscreen display and a camera unit for producing digital photographic images with the handheld device that are displayed on the touchscreen display in real time. The handheld device has a orientation sensing unit for determining the orientation of the handheld device. A subject is positioned wearing a spectacle frame on the subject's head at a position so that real time images of the subject's head with the spectacle frame from the camera unit are displayed in the touchscreen display. The electronic handheld device is moved with the real time images of the subject's head and eyewear being displayed within the display until the orientation sensing unit of the handheld device measures that the handheld device is at a selected oriented position.

Abstract: An apparatus capable of displaying a logo capable of glowing includes a light source capable of emitting light and a translucent portion corresponding to the logo, wherein the translucent portion is capable of receiving the light from the light source and is capable of allowing the light to propagate therethrough. A method capable of forming a logo badge includes molding a translucent polymeric material into a translucent portion of the logo badge and molding an opaque polymeric material into an opaque portion of the logo badge.

Abstract: A snap-on hinge assembly (20) for pivotally mounting a door (14) to a base (12) including a pivot saddle or pin (22) and a snap-acting gripping assembly (24) formed to slidably mount over, and resiliently snap into gripping engagement with, pivot pin 22. The gripping assembly (24) and pivot pin (22) are formed for pivoting of the gripping assembly (24) around the pivot pin (22) while in gripping engagement therewith, and the hinge assembly (20) further is formed with over-travel stopping surfaces (15, 38) positioned so that reaction forces between the door (14) and the base (12), upon relative engagement in an open position, urge the gripping assembly (24) and the pivot pin (22) in a direction preventing unsnapping of the gripping assembly (24) from the pivot pin (22).
