Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of eyeglass fitting technology, and more specifically, to a handheld cross-cylindrical lens and eyeglass fitting components. Background Technology
[0002] A cross cylinder lens, also known as a Jackson cross cylinder lens (JCC), is an ophthalmic optical tool primarily used for detecting and correcting astigmatism. It consists of two cylinders with the same power but opposite signs and perpendicular axes. The main function of a cross cylinder lens is to accurately determine the axis and power of astigmatism. Its use requires that the axis and power of the astigmatism have already been initially determined. During refraction, the cross cylinder lens is used for fine-tuning astigmatism, including determining the axis and power of the cylinders. It is particularly suitable for precise adjustments to astigmatism, especially for making precise adjustments to the axis and power of the cylinders based on the initial astigmatism value. Cross cylinder lenses are often used in conjunction with a dotted target because this type of target has the characteristic of being indistinguishable in all directions, which helps to more accurately detect astigmatism.
[0003] The existing cross-cylindrical lens has a large lens diameter, making it difficult to get close to the refraction lens placed in the trial frame. Currently, trial frames usually have multiple lens slots, and the cross-cylindrical lens is usually placed in the inner slot, which blocks the lens slot and makes adjustment inconvenient.

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1-3 This embodiment provides a handheld cross-cylindrical mirror 100, which includes a frame 110, a cylindrical lens 130, and a handle 150.
[0036] The cylindrical lens 130 is connected to the frame 110, and the frame 110 can be fitted with the lens slot of the trial frame; the handle 150 is connected to the frame 110.
[0037] In an optional embodiment, the frame 110 includes a frame body 111 and a lens receiving portion 112. The frame body 111 is detachably connected to the handle 150, and the cylindrical lens 130 is received in the lens receiving portion 112.
[0038] Please refer to Figures 1-3 The working principle of this handheld cross cylindrical lens 100 is as follows:
[0039] The handheld cross-cylindrical lens 100 includes a frame 110, a cylindrical lens 130, and a handle 150. The cylindrical lens 130 is connected to the frame 110, and the frame 110 can mate with the lens slot of a trial frame. The handle 150 is connected to the frame 110. In use, the handheld cross-cylindrical lens 100 is inserted into the lens slot of the trial frame. This arrangement improves ease of operation, facilitating astigmatism detection and correction by the optometrist.
[0040] It should be noted that the cross cylindrical lens 130 is formed by two cylindrical lenses 130 with equal refractive power but opposite signs, and the axes of the cylindrical lenses 130 are stacked perpendicularly to each other. Commonly used cross cylindrical lenses 130 have several specifications such as ±0.25DC, ±0.50DC, and ±1.00DC. That is, in order to facilitate the detection and correction of astigmatism, various specifications of handheld cross cylindrical lenses 100 are provided to facilitate the selection of the appropriate specifications of handheld cross cylindrical lenses 100 according to actual needs when conducting astigmatism detection and correction.
[0041] It should also be noted that, in order to facilitate the identification of the axis and the refractive power symbol of the cylindrical lens 130, the red dot on the handheld cross cylindrical lens 100 usually indicates the axis of negative astigmatism, that is, the maximum positive refractive power in this direction; the black dot indicates the axis of positive astigmatism, that is, the maximum negative refractive power in this direction.
[0042] In addition, the handle 150 is designed for easy gripping and flipping, so as to determine the axis of astigmatism by comparing the sharpness of different axes by flipping the cross cylindrical lens 130.
[0043] In addition, in this embodiment, in order to enable the handheld cross cylindrical lens 100 to be inserted into the lens slot of the trial frame, the outer ring of the frame 110 has a structural size that is compatible with the lens slot. For example, the outer ring size can be set to 34.2mm to ensure that the cross cylindrical lens 130 can be easily inserted into the lens slot of the optometry trial frame, which is convenient for flipping and adjustment, and solves the problem that the traditional cross cylindrical lens 130 cannot be adapted due to its excessive size.
[0044] Furthermore, existing cross-cylindrical lenses (130) generally have low light transmittance, typically around 92%, due to the lack of coating. Combined with the existing cylindrical lens (130), this results in more than two lenses overlapping, severely impacting light transmittance and affecting the accuracy of refraction. Therefore, in this embodiment, the surface of the cylindrical lens (130) is coated with a light-transmitting film. The purpose of this coating is to improve the light transmittance of the cylindrical lens (130) to 98%, a significant improvement compared to traditional uncoated products.
[0045] Based on the above, please refer to Figures 1-5 When configuring the frame 110, the frame 110 includes a frame body 111 and a lens receiving portion 112. The frame body 111 is detachably connected to the handle 150, and the cylindrical lens 130 is housed in the lens receiving portion 112. Furthermore, the outer ring of the frame 110 can be configured with a size adapted to the insert slot as described above. In addition, to facilitate positioning and adjustment of the handheld cross cylindrical lens 100, two positive axis position line marks 113 and two negative axis position line marks 114 are provided on both sides of the frame body 111.
[0046] Two positive axis position line marks 113 and two negative axis position line marks 114 are evenly spaced around the axis of the lens receiving part 112, with the two positive axis position line marks 113 facing each other and the two negative axis position line marks 114 facing each other.
[0047] Specifically, the positive axis position line mark 113 includes a first circular groove 115, a first straight groove 116, and a white marking layer; the first straight groove 116 extends along the radial direction of the lens receiving portion 112 and communicates with the first circular groove 115, and the white marking layer is disposed in the first circular groove 115 and the first straight groove 116.
[0048] The negative axis position line mark 114 includes a second circular groove 117, a second straight groove 118, and a red marking layer; the second straight groove 118 extends along the radial direction of the lens receiving portion 112 and communicates with the second circular groove 117, and the red marking layer is disposed in the second circular groove 117 and the second straight groove 118.
[0049] This configuration creates a clear color coding on the frame 110 of the cross-cylindrical lens 130; the positive axis is represented by white dots and lines, and the negative axis by red dots and lines. Combined with the circular and straight grooves, this makes the axis markings more prominent and easier to identify, further improving adjustment efficiency and accuracy. It should be noted that the aforementioned white and red marking layers can be colored coatings or colored blocks within the circular and straight grooves.
[0050] Further, please refer to Figures 1-5In this embodiment, the frame 111 is also provided with a hollow hole 119, and a handle positioning arrow 121 is provided in the hollow hole 119. The handle positioning arrow 121 extends along the direction of the handle 150 and points to the middle of the positive axis line and the negative axis line.
[0051] Moreover, it is located at the connection point between the two axis midlines and the handle 150. Through the setting of the cutout hole 119, a transparent window can be formed, which makes it convenient for the optometrist to directly observe the axis line of the refraction lens cylinder through the window when fine-tuning the axis according to the positioning arrow 121 of the handle, and to accurately align it with the arrow, which significantly improves the accuracy of the adjustment.
[0052] In addition, to facilitate the distinction between the front and back sides of the cross cylindrical lens 130 and ensure accurate use when flipped, positioning marks 122 are provided on both sides of the frame 111; and the positioning marks 122 can be numerical marks, letter marks or text marks marked on the front and back sides of the cross cylindrical lens 130, such as "I / II", "A / B", "1 / 2" or "front / back".
[0053] As can be seen from the above, to facilitate the detection and correction of astigmatism, various sizes of handheld cross-cylinder lenses 100 are provided, allowing for the selection of the appropriate size based on actual needs during astigmatism detection and correction. Therefore, to facilitate quick identification of different sizes of handheld cross-cylinder lenses 100 and thus rapid selection of the appropriate one, please refer to... Figures 1-6 At least a portion of the outer periphery of the handle 150 is provided with an identification mark 151. Furthermore, the identification mark 151 can employ various two-tone color combinations, with each color corresponding to a different cross-cylindrical lens power 130, facilitating optometrists to quickly distinguish and select the appropriate cross-cylindrical lens power 130. Specifically, the handle 150 has a marking groove 152 along its extending direction, and the identification mark 151 is housed within the marking groove 152; that is, the identification mark 151 can be a colored coating disposed within the marking groove 152, or it can be a colored block fitted within the marking groove 152.
[0054] Based on the above, please refer to Figures 1-6 This embodiment also provides a lens fitting assembly, which includes a trial frame and the aforementioned handheld cross cylindrical lens 100; the lens frame 110 can be fitted with the lens slot of the trial frame.
[0055] This lens fitting assembly, by employing the aforementioned handheld cross-cylindrical lens 100, allows the handheld cross-cylindrical lens 100 to be freely rotated within the lens slot of the trial frame during use, facilitating the optometrist's detection and correction of astigmatism.
[0056] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
