2. Operational Description
2.1 Measurement Principle
2.1.1 Refractometry
(1) A ray of light from the light source is reflected in the retina of examinee.
(2) According to refraction of examinee’s eye, the reflected light in the examinee’s eye exits as follow.
1) In case of emmetropia, the ray of light is parallel.
2) In case of near-sightedness, the ray of light is convergence.
3) In case of a farsighted eye, the ray of light is divergence.
(3) Then, the ray of light through the optical system imaged in the camera as six spot.
(4) Calculate the distance of coordinate of six spots and the center, obtain SPH, CYL and AX value.

Mire Light Source
CCD Camera
Objective Lens for Keratoscope
Mire Light is reflected examinee’s cornea, is imaged on the camera after through the Optical System.
Circular Mire Light is reflected circular or ellipse form by Radius of curvature and Astigmia of Examinee
cornea, coordinates of refracted light (XY Coordinates) on the camera is inputted the MPU, calculate that
data and obtain the Radius of Circle or the major axis and the minor axis of ellipse, Angle of Rotation .

R, θ and h are correlated Snell’s Low as follows (R is radius of curvature of cornea, θ is incident angle
of Mire Light in the cornea, h is distance between position of Mire Light image at the cornea and Optical
Axis), obtain the long or short radius of curvature of cornea by this formula.

2.3.3 Eyeball Diagram Generated by the REF Measurement
It is possible to print the refrection state diagram regarding the result of the REF measurement to the
internal printer. This function will be performed when ‘PRINT=ALL’ in the Page 2/5 of the SETUP MODE.
