Ophthalmic optics - Contact lenses - Part 2: Tolerances (ISO 18369-2:2017)

This document specifies the tolerance limits of the principal optical and physical parameters of rigid
corneal, rigid scleral and soft contact lenses at the time of manufacture.
These tolerances might not apply to other purposes, for example, shelf-life studies.

Augenoptik - Kontaktlinsen - Teil 2: Grenzabweichungen (ISO 18369-2:2017)

Dieser Teil von ISO 18369 legt die Grenzabmaße bzw. Grenzabweichungen für die optischen und physikali-schen Eigenschaften von formstabilen Korneal- und formstabilen Skleral- und weichen Kontaktlinsen zum Zeitpunkt der Herstellung fest.
Diese Grenzabmaße bzw. Grenzabweichungen können nicht für andere Zwecke, wie z. B. Haltbarkeitsstudien, angewendet werden,

Optique ophtalmique - Lentilles de contact - Partie 2: Tolérances (ISO 18369-2:2017)

ISO 18369-2:2017 spécifie les limites de tolérance des principaux paramètres optiques et physiques des lentilles de contact cornéennes rigides, sclérales rigides et souples au moment de leur fabrication.
Ces tolérances peuvent ne pas s'appliquer à d'autres fins, par exemple, à des études de durée de conservation.

Očesna optika - Kontaktne leče - 2. del: Tolerance (ISO 18369-2:2017)

Ta dokument določa tolerančne meje glavnih optičnih in fizikalnih parametrov trdih roženičnih, trdih beločničnih in mehkih kontaktnih leč med izdelavo.
Te tolerance se morda ne uporabljajo za druge namene, na primer za študije roka uporabnosti.

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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
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. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee
SC 7, Ophthalmic optics and instruments.

technically revised.
