Kebo Optometric Group, Inc. is committed to providing the best quality lenses for our patients, but even the best products are only as good as the measurements we provide to the optical lab. Our staff felt it was very important to have custom measurements available when utilizing digital lenses. We invested in the Optikam measurement device for our patients because it obtains eyewear measurements that take into account how the frame will be worn by the patient once dispensed. These personalized “as-worn” measurements allow lens designs to be customized to take into account vertex distance, pantoscopic tilt and frame wrap. As-worn measurements improve monocular pupillary distance measurements since it utilizes the mid-point of the frame which takes into account the frame fit and possible nose pad adjustments.

Optikam provides the ten measurements needed for position of wear:

• Monocular Pupillary Distance (PD)

• Multifocal Seg Heights

• Pantoscopic Tilt (Panto)

• Rear Vertex Distance (RVD)

• Wrap (Face Form Tilt)

• Near Pupillary Distance

• A, B, ED/MBS and DBL values

These measurements, when accounted for in the fabrication of the patient's lenses, offer the best visual experience, thus moving patients into superior lens products.
