Spectrophotometer ETA-ARC

Fast, Precise and Easy-to-Use Measuring System for Ophthalmic Anti-Reflection and Hard Coatings

• The measurement can be done on the curved ophthalmic lenses directly without any special preparation of the backside
• Front and back-side can be measured individually
• One side measurement of the anti-reflection and the hard coating

There's nothing to laugh about...?!

I am using a CECIL 4055 reflectance spectrometer, which is good for AR and most other tests. Cost close to 20K

It has been a while but BPI used to make an economical meter. I have also used the Humphrey'e lens analayizer (Ziess) that we used as lensometer, UV meter and had print out options. Expensive but for a high volume lab/store a worth while investment.

There are some good inexpensive UV meters on the market, its just that they are not made anymore on this continent like they used to be 15 to 20 years ago.

These instruments are perfect for an optical retail store to check and sell UV treated lenses.

I got one from Ming optical in Toronto ( I think) Very inexpensive...like $125.00 I think. Sorry it was about 2 years ago. I do remember that it was about 65% less than anywhere else.
