Analyze lenses in seconds
Topcon
says that its EZ-200 Automatic Rx Analyzer is compact, easy to use and features
the "world's first" simultaneous measurement of right and left lenses. The spectacle
measuring system automatically reads lens power (sphere, cylinder, axis); it can
recognize and measure multifocals and progressives, display far- and near-point
distance from optical center for progressive lenses; and measure
monocular and total spectacle PD.
The
single-button measuring process allows even those with no prior optical experience
to obtain accurate, repeatable results in seconds. Measurement of single vision
lenses (both right and left) takes 10 seconds, while progressive lenses take 20
seconds. The device also features an RS-232 interface for easy communication with
other Topcon products and/or a personal computer.

Low-Vision Aid Gets Protection
Eschenbach
has added a protective hard plastic cover to its 1510 line of illuminated, hand-held
magnifiers. The blue cap will shield the lens from scratches and general wear and
tear when not in use. It's attached to the magnifier by a hinge so that users can't
lose or forget it, and it can also be completely removed. Eschenbach says that the
cover is easy to use, especially for the elderly or those with weak or unsteady
hands.
