OptiCampus ANSI Z80.1-2010 Summary
This is a summary of the principal optical and geometrical tolerances from the new ANSI Z80.1-2010, American National Standard for OphthalmicsPrescription Ophthalmic Lenses.
This includes both mounted and unmounted tolerances for single vision & bifocal lenses and progressive addition lenses.
The full version of this document is available online from ANSI's eStandards Store.
OptiCampus highly recommends obtaining the full Z80.1 Standard, which includes useful definitions, test methods, and informative annexes.
