For the best result, you must add one half (1/2) of the cylinder number to the sphere number.
Take care to add or subtract correctly
Follow examples below to select RX
Example 1
Sphere, Cylinder, Axis
OD -3.0 0 . 0
OS -2.0 .0 .0
RESULTS RIGHT LENS –3.0 LEFT LENS –2.0
OD : Sphere of –3.0, plus ½ of the cylinder 0 : -3.0 + 0 = -3.0
OS : Sphere of -2.0, plus ½ of the cylinder 0 : -2.0 + 0 = -2.0
Example 2
Sphere Cylinder Axis
OD - 3.0 +.50 .0
OS - 2.0 -.50 .0
RESULTS RIGHT LENS –3.0 LEFT LENS –1.5
OD : Sphere of –3.0, plus ½ of the cylinder +.50 : -3.0 + .25 = -3.25
CHOOSE 3.0 - WATER NATURAL MAGINIFICATION WILL ALLOW - USE ROUND DOWN
OS : Sphere of -2.0, plus ½ of the cylinder -.50 : -2.0 - .25 = -1.75
CHOOSE 1.5 - WATER NATURAL MAGINIFICATION WILL ALLOW USE ROUND DOWN
