Abstract

Provided is a spectacle lens supply system to supply a progressive power lens including a determination section to determine a size of an area of clear vision in the progressive power lens according to a level of a prescribed fixation disparity amount. The determination section selects a type having an area of clear vision same as or narrower than that of a reference progressive power lens when the prescribed fixation disparity amount is larger than or equal to a reference fixation disparity amount and selects a type having an area of clear vision same as or wider than that of the reference progressive power lens when the prescribed fixation disparity amount is smaller than the reference fixation disparity amount.

Claims

1. A spectacle lens supply system to supply a progressive power lens, the system comprising:

a determination section to determine a size of an area of clear vision in a progressive power lens according to a level of a prescribed fixation disparity amount.

2. The spectacle lens supply system according to claim 1,

wherein the determination section selects a type having an area of clear vision same as or narrower than that of a reference progressive power lens when the prescribed fixation disparity amount is larger than or equal to a reference fixation disparity amount and selects a type having an area of clear vision same as or wider than that of the reference progressive power lens when the prescribed fixation disparity amount is smaller than the reference fixation disparity amount.

3. The spectacle lens supply system according to claim 1, comprising:

an input section to input, to the determination section, the prescribed fixation disparity amount or a prescribed prism amount; and

an output section to output the size of the area of clear vision of the progressive power lens determined by the determination section and the prescribed prism amount.

4. The spectacle lens supply system according to claim 3,

wherein the determination section calculates a fixation disparity amount according to the prescribed prism amount input by the input section, estimates, from a value of the calculated fixation disparity amount, a level of improvement of vision when the fixation disparity is corrected, and determines the size of the area of clear vision of the progressive power lens based on an estimation result thereof.

5. The spectacle lens supply system according to claim 1,

wherein the determination section determines at least a size of an area of clear vision of a near portion as the size of the area of clear vision of the progressive power lens.

6. A spectacle lens supply method to supply a progressive power lens, comprising:

a determination step of determining a size of an area of clear vision in a progressive power lens according to a level of a prescribed fixation disparity amount.

7. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a spectacle lens supply program to cause a computer, in a spectacle lens supply system to supply a progressive power lens, to function as a determination section to determine a size of an area of clear vision in the progressive power lens according to a level of a prescribed fixation disparity amount.

8. A spectacle lens recommended type presentation device to present a recommended type recommended with respect to a size of an area of clear vision of a progressive power lens, the device comprising:

a determination section to determine a size of an area of clear vision in the progressive power lens according to a level of a prescribed fixation disparity amount.

9. A spectacle lens production method, comprising:

a determination step of determining a size of an area of clear vision in a progressive power lens according to a level of a prescribed fixation disparity amount.
