7. Base Curve Tolerance
• When specified, the base curve shall be supplied within ± 0.75 D.
10. Segment Vertical Location, Tilt and Fitting Cross Vertical Location
• Multifocals: the segment height for each lens shall be within ± 1.0mm. The difference between the
segment height in the mounted pair shall not exceed 1.0mm.
• Progressives: the fitting cross height for each lens shall be within ± 1.0mm. The difference between the
fitting cross height in the mounted pair shall not exceed 1.0mm.
• The horizontal axis tilt for each lens shall be within ± 2° using the permanent horizontal reference markings.
