Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 9342-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee SC 7,
Ophthalmic optics and instruments.
ISO 9342 consists of the following parts, under the general title Optics and optical instruments — Test lenses
for calibration of focimeters:
⎯ Part 1: Test lenses for focimeters used for measuring spectacle lenses
⎯ Part 2: Test lenses for focimeters used for measuring contact lenses

Optics and optical instruments — Test lenses for calibration of
focimeters —
Part 2:
Test lenses for focimeters used for measuring contact lenses
1 Scope
This part of ISO 9342 specifies requirements for test lenses for focimeters that are used to measure contact
lenses. These test lenses are used to find the precise correction values that are needed to convert the power
values measured to back vertex power values, as defined in Clause 3.
This part of ISO 9342 applies to focimeters meeting the requirements of ISO 8598.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 7944:1998, Optics and optical instruments — Reference wavelengths
ISO 8598:1996, Optics and optical instruments — Focimeters
3 Terms and definitions
For the purpose of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
back vertex power
F
bv
reciprocal of the paraxial value of the back vertex focal length, measured in metres
−1
NOTE 1 The unit for expressing vertex power is the reciprocal metre (m ). The name for this unit is “dioptre”, and the
symbol is D.
NOTE 2 Conventionally, the back vertex power is specified as the “power“ of a contact lens.
3.2
spherical test lenses
test lenses having spherical front and back surfaces so that their back vertex power may be expressed by a
single value
3.3
reference wavelength
wavelengths specified in ISO 7944
NOTE For the purpose of this part of ISO 9342, the reference wavelength can be either the green mercury line
(λ = 546,07 nm) or the yellow helium line (λ = 587,56 nm).

4 Design requirements and recommendations for test lenses
4.1 General
Test lenses should be made of homogeneous white crown glass selected to be free of bubbles and striae in
an area of 4 mm radius surrounding the centre of the free aperture.
It is accepted that other materials can also be used provided their use result in lenses with a durability and
optical reproducibility within the given tolerance over time and that can be manufactured to the same standard
of uncertainty and form, as the glass lenses specified above.
Test lenses should have a protective mount that is designed so that, when the lens is correctly placed on the
lens support, the focimeter is not obstructed.
4.2 Spherical test lens
For a complete set of spherical test lenses, the following set of nominal ba
