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 18369-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee SC 7,
Ophthalmic optics and instruments.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 18369-2:2006), of which Clause 7 and Table 4
have been technically revised.
ISO 18369 consists of the following parts, under the general title Ophthalmic optics — Contact lenses:
— Part 1: Vocabulary, classification system and recommendations for labelling specifications
— Part 2: Tolerances
— Part 3: Measurement methods
— Part 4: Physicochemical properties of contact lens materials

Introduction
ISO 18369 is applicable to contact lenses, which are devices worn over the front surface of the eye in
contact with the preocular tear film. This part of ISO 18369 covers rigid (hard) corneal and scleral contact
lenses, as well as soft contact lenses. Rigid lenses maintain their own shape unsupported and are made
of transparent optical-grade plastics, such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), cellulose acetate butyrate
(CAB), polyacrylate/siloxane copolymers, rigid polysiloxanes (silicone resins), butylstyrenes, fluoropolymers
and fluorosiloxanes, etc. Soft contact lenses are easily deformable and require support for proper shape. A
very large subset of soft contact lenses consists of transparent hydrogels containing water in concentrations
greater than 10 %. Soft contact lenses can also be made of non-hydrogel materials, e.g. flexible polysiloxanes
(silicone elastomers).
ISO 18369 is applicable to determining allowable tolerances of parameters and properties important for the
proper functioning of contact lenses as optical devices. ISO 18369 includes tolerances for single vision contact
lenses, bifocal lenses, lenses that alter the flux density and/or spectral composition of transmitted visible light
(tinted or pigmented contact lenses, such as those with enhancing, handling and/or opaque tints) and lenses that
significantly attenuate ultraviolet radiation (UV-absorbing lenses). ISO 18369 covers contact lenses designed
with spherical, toric and aspheric surfaces, and recommended methods for the specification of contact lenses.
