Vacuum anti-scratch coating machine
Vacuum anti-scratch coating machine
This machine applies a special coating to lenses, making them resistant to scratches.
Auto refractometer
Auto refractometer
Used to determine the power of a lens (spherical, cylindrical, or combined), and helps find refractive errors with near-infrared light.
Pupillometer (for measuring PD)
Pupillometer (for measuring PD)
A device used to measure the distance between the centers of your pupils. It's important for making sure your glasses are centered correctly.
