    Question BASE & CROSS CURVE MEASUREMENT

    Can anyone help me:
    How can I measure BASE & CROSS CURVE after the lens has been generated?
    This is to know if the lens has been generated according to diptre power.

    I have the manual Mitutoyo sagometer.

    Anyone has such instrument

    e mail me privately at
    optimec@cats-net.com

    Thanks.

    Align the pins of the sagometer with the pins on the back of the button. Read the curve. Rotate lens 90 degrees and do the same. Lowest curve = base, highest curve = cyl.....
