Abstract:

This paper describes equipment for checking and calibrating ophthalmologic refractometers in the form of planoconvex lenses of different thicknesses whose back vertex powers lie in the range from −20 to +20 D. The given lenses and their design features are analyzed, and their indeterminacy is calculated.
