If you don’t understand lenses, remember these 10 tips

Intrinsic quality factors of resin lenses:

1. Base material quality
The substrate quality determines the durability of the lens and the reliability of the coating. Good substrate clear and bright, long use time and not easy to yellow; And some lenses use time is not long turn yellow, even coating off. Good lens without a scratch, scratch, hair, pitting, the lens oblique to the light observation, high finish. There are no spots, stones, stripes, bubbles and cracks inside the lens, and the light is bright.
2. Grade of lens
Mass-produced lenses are divided into different grades due to differences in intrinsic quality, and the prices of superior and inferior products vary greatly.
3. The index of refraction
The higher the refractive index, the thinner the lens, and the higher the price.
4. Coating and anti-ultraviolet treatment
Resin sheet can be hardened (scratch resistance), anti-reflection, anti-static, dustproof, waterproof coating processing as many as a dozen layers, different coating processing has a different role, if reduce the coating processing process, the quality of the lens will be greatly reduced. Similarly, it is very harmful to the eyes if the lenses that do not prevent ultraviolet rays are worn as lenses that prevent ultraviolet rays. The human eye absorbs too much ultraviolet light to easily cause a variety of eye diseases such as photoinduced keratitis, cataract and macular degeneration.
5. Brand of lens
Brand differences lead to differences in quality and price. The quality of lens is directly reflected in the brand of lens. The quality of famous lens is good and stable. As the lens is processed in the background, whether it is genuine or not, consumers can not track and identify, mainly rely on the integrity of the operator. The good faith approach is that when customers match glasses, the shop owner should indicate the brand, variety, refractive index and coating condition of the lens on the document, and the ability to prevent ultraviolet light should also be explained to the customer. If the resin lens is written in general, the discrepancy is very large, the inner quality of the lens is unknown. ABC grade is only used to distinguish when the manufacturer produces, in fact, the national standard does not require such a distinction. Of course, no matter which grade of ABC lens is qualified.
6. Transparency and optical uniformity of the lens
Hold the lens 30 cm away from the eye and observe the distant scenery through the lens. If the scenery is clear and without deformation, and there is no scene jump when moving the lens slowly, the transparency and optical uniformity of the lens are good.
7. Axial direction of astigmatism lens
On a blank sheet of paper to draw a perpendicular cross fork, put the lens in the spider rotate graphic above 30 centimeters, visible lens move the cross the cross fork, lens inside and when connected to stroke cross graphics, graphics was positively cross, where column lens axis and straight line, then the lenses were repeatedly moving along a straight line; Observe which line diverges more from the line outside the lens when moving, and this line is the direction of the scatterlight axis. Move the lens so that the inside and outside line up, here is the axis of divergence. After marking on the lens, measure the axial and horizontal Angle at the center of the lens with a protractor, which is the axial degree.
8. Optical center displacement
Draw a large cross on a piece of white paper in a thin, clear, straight line. Hold the lens between the eye and the cross, observe the shape of the cross from the mirror with one eye, if the inside and outside of the mirror are not in line, you can move the lens, so that the inside of the lens and the outside of the mirror cross line. Use a brush or fountain pen to place a small point on the cross center of the lens, which is the optical center. After pointing the optical centers of both lenses, observe and compare whether the bilateral optical centers are symmetrical, and measure the distance between the two centers with a small ruler to see whether the distance between the two centers is consistent with the prescribed distance to the pupil. If the cross in the lens is bent, it shows that there is internal stress or uneven optical density of the lens.
9. Wear comfort
Wear without any feeling, dizziness and eye swelling, observation objects are not blurred, not deformed. When buying, hold glasses in hand and look at distant objects with one eye through the lens. Shake the lens up and down. The illusion of movement of distant objects should not occur.
10. Protective
High quality lenses can 100% block UV A and UV B, providing the most effective uv protection for the wearer.
