ABSTRACT:
An automatic lens meter includes a projection optical system for projecting light beams onto a lens to be tested. The lens is held at a predetermined position in the direction of an optical axis. The meter also includes a receiving optical system having a light position detector. The receiving optical system receives light beams transmitted through the lens to be tested on the light-position detector. The meter further includes a calculator for calculating a diopter value and an eccentricity of the lens to be tested from the position of the tranmitted light beams on the light-position detector, a timer for measuring the time during which the eccentricity is within a predetermined range, and a display device for displaying the diopter value of the lens to be tested when the time during which the eccentricity is within a predetermined range exceeds a predetermined time.
