ABSTRACT:
A lens meter is provided which comprises a light source for generation of a measuring light beam and a pattern forming plate provided in an optical path of the measuring light beam. The pattern forming plate has a central pattern for measuring lens characteristics of a narrow area on an eyeglass lens and a plurality of peripheral patterns for measuring lens characteristics of a wide area on the eyeglass lens. The pattern forming plate can be switched between a normal measuring mode which receives the image of the central pattern based on the measuring light beam transmitted through the narrow area of the eyeglass lens and also measures the narrow area alone and displays the measured values and a wide-area measuring mode which receives a great number of images of the peripheral patterns based on the measuring light beam transmitted through the wide area of the eyeglass lens and also measures the wide area and performs mapping display.
