ABSTRACT:
A lens meter for measuring refractive power distribution of a progressive power lens and displaying its distribution map, has a lens rest having an aperture, an optical system including an axis, a source projecting a light bundle along the axis, a plate having targets and a two-dimensional image sensor detecting images by the bundle passing through the lens, aperture and plate, a part calculating the distribution within a measurement region from detection results, a part detecting a lens-position in a two-dimensional direction orthogonal to the axis, a device guiding movement on the rest to shift the measurement region and obtaining the distribution within an analysis region including distance, progressive and near portions, a part storing the distribution in the measurement region in association with the detected position, a display part, and a part controlling to display the distribution map within the analysis region based on the stored distribution and position.
