Abstract

Purpose: We have analyzed the transmittance distribution of various ocular lenses using local transmittance microscope to investigate the optical homogeneity of the lens. Methods: The local transmittance of the laser which is focused on the surface of the spectacle lens was measured by using the photo-detector, lock-in amplifier and motorized-stage. 25 multi-coated lenses with non-tinted of 5 groups and 45 multicoated lenses with tinted of 9 groups were analyzed as a sample respectively. Results: Average and deviation of local transmittance for nontinted lenses were measured almost uniformly with various refractive index and coating. However, deviation of transmittance of for tinted lenses was analyzed as about 3.7 times larger than that of non-tinted lenses. Inhomogeneity of local transmittance of for tinted lenses was also analyzed as about 3.1 times larger than that of non-tinted lenses. Conclusions: We could analyze that standard deviation of transmittance and inhomogeneity of local transmittance of for tinted lenses is larger than that of non-tinted lenses using the local transmittance microscope. These analysis using local transmittance microscope can be utilized as a way to evaluate lens performance and improve optical homogeneity.

목적: 다양한 안경렌즈의 투과율 분포를 국소 투과율 현미경을 이용하여 분석함으로써 렌즈의 광학적 균일성을 연구하고자 한다. 방법: 안경렌즈 표면에 집광된 레이저의 국소적 투과율을 광검출기, 락인앰프 그리고 전동이송장치로 측정하였다. 5종 25장의 멀티코팅된 무착색렌즈와 9종 45장의 멀티코팅된 착색렌즈가 시료로서 분석되었다. 결과: 굴절률과 코팅 종류에 따른 무착색렌즈의 투과율과 렌즈별 투과율 편차는 거의 균일하게 측정되었다. 하지만 착색렌즈의 경우 렌즈별 투과율 편차가 무착색렌즈에 비해 약 3.7배 크게 측정되었다. 또한 렌즈의 국소적 투과율 불균일도도 무착색렌즈에 비해 착색렌즈가 평균 약 3.1배 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 결론: 무착색렌즈에 비해 착색렌즈가 렌즈별 투과율의 편차와 투과율 불균일도가 모두 큰 것을 국소 투과율 현미경을 이용하여 분석할 수 있었다. 국소 투과율 현미경을 통한 이러한 분석은 렌즈의 성능 평가와 광학적 균일성 향상에 적용될 수 있다.
