As-Worn Technology™
Measurements
2. Pantoscopic Tilt
Product Classification: Everyday> Progressive
The angle of the lenses as they sit on a patient’s face.
To get the maximum benefit from As-Worn Technology™, the actual
measurements of the wearer should be included. (Vertex Distance Fitted and Refracted, Pantoscopic Tilt, Panoramic Angle)
Natural Head Position
Person 2 - Ear Lower
Person 3 - Ear Higher
Pantoscopic Tilt Range: 0 - 12 (Default: 9 )
If the As-Worn measurements are not included with the Autograph II®
order, the Shamir Prescriptor® will use defaults. These defaults are
based on averages. The consumer will benefit greatly from As-Worn
Technology™, experiencing more precise and perfected vision.

These three patient measurements have been added to better
interpret between the prescription derived from the phoropter and the
prescription required by the doctor for the patient’s glasses. In order to
take advantage of As-Worn Technology™, the following measurements
are required:
1. Vertex distance (refracted and fitted): Vertex distance is the
distance from the front of the eye to the back of the lens,
whether it is in the phoropter or in the frame.

THE EFFECTS OF POSITION CHANGE POWERS:
A powered lens moved away from the eye becomes more plus and more
minus when moved closer. Lenses tilted change sphere and cylinder
power. To test these, place a -4 sphere lens in an automated lensometer
and change the position up and down on the lens stop or change the tilt
and watch the prescription change. As a result, to deliver the correct
prescription, lenses should be compensated to deliver the prescribed Rx.

Resultant Rx™
3. Panoramic angle: Panoramic angle, is the parabolic curve of the
frame in relation to a flat plane (the curvature of the frame in
relationship to the patient’s face).
Therefore, the doctor’s prescription will be modified, taking the additional
fitting requirements into account. The lab will return the glasses with
two prescriptions; the original prescribed Rx and the “As-worn” Rx (a.k.a
Resultant Rx™). It is important to use the Resultant Rx™ to verify the lens
prescription in a lensometer. Some opticians may be concerned they
are changing the doctor’s prescription. However, if a Rx is altered by the
way it is worn, compensating the Rx for the wearing effects ensures the
final pair of glasses actually delivers the prescription the doctor intended.

2. Pantoscopic tilt: Pantoscopic tilt is the angle of the frame
to the face on the patient (in the phoropter this is zero for
a frame 8 - 10mm).
By supplying the complete frame and fitting data in addition to these
parameters you are able to accurately deliver a personalized and
superior lens to your patient as prescribed by the doctor for that
specific frame.

Shamir Autograph II Single Vision™
Shamir Autograph II - Single Vision™ is an aspheric lens. Its ocular surface is aspherically
designed and processed with Freeform Technology™. This ensures an atoric ocular
surface with enhanced optical and cosmetic properties.
The lens will be laser engraved, these engravings are 34mm from center to center of
the two laser engravings. The fitting point and the PRP (MRP) are located at the same
position, directly between and in the center of the laser engravings.
FITTING:
A monocular PD and a fitting height should be taken for the Autograph II - Single Vision™
lens. This will ensure that the design is placed directly in front of the pupil. By design,
the OC will not be at the fitting height, unless the fitting height is equal to the mechanical
center of the frame.
SURFACING:
The lens should be blocked on geometric center and the fitting height and prism thinning
should be specified.
CHECKING POWER AND PRISM AFTER SURFACING:
The laser engravings should be marked, and using the centration chart, the fitting point
should also be marked. The power and the amount of prescribed prism, should there be
any, are checked at the fitting point. Also, remember that the lens has been cosmetically
balanced so there may be vertical prism here, similar to prism thinning in a progressive.
The amount of prism ground to achieve this will not exceed 2.5 diopters and should be
equivalent in each eye even if the powers are dissimilar.
LAYOUT FOR EDGING:
Shamir Autograph II
®
Autograph II® is a Freeform® lens made at the lab.
Freeform® lenses start from a single vision blank and are
ground with precision using special machines. The design
and the patient’s Rx are on the back of the lens. Our easy
access diagram below explains everything.
BACK SURFACE DESIGN WIDENS
PATIENT’S FIELD OF VIEW.
These lenses should be laid out for edging as if it were a progressive. The engraving
marks should be on the 180 line and the fitting cross moved to correspond to the PD and
Fitting Height. The OC should not be used for edging layout.
FINAL INSPECTION:
The lens should be treated like a progressive. The laser engravings are marked and the
fitting point is marked. The PD is checked by measuring the distance between the fitting
points (not the OC) the fitting height is measured from the fitting point. The power, Rx
Prism and vertical imbalance are all checked at the fitting point. There will be prism
thinning and there should be no vertical imbalance between the two eyes.

ORDERING THE SHAMIR AUTOGRAPH II - OFFICE™ LENS:
1. Provide the prescription the same way you do for a progressive lens.
Total Dynamic Reduction
2. Provide the Fitting Height and Mono Distance PD.
3. Provide the Frame details - You can send either:
• A frame
• A drawing of the frame with the frame (A)
frame (B) and frame ED and DBL
• Box Measurements
• Tracer files, if lab supports
4. Provide distance from patient’s eyes to computer screen
(between 60cm-200cm with intervals of 1cm).

• Below Eye Level
• Above Eye Level
• At Eye Level
Personal Dynamic
Reduction
• Static - primarily in one position (i.e. sitting)
• In motion (i.e. standing)
The chosen frame must have a minimum fitting height of 16mm and
distance of minimum 7mm from the fitting point to the upper rim of the
frame. The prescription range for total reading (distance and ADD) has
to be between -6.0[D] to +8.0[D].
Eyeball
While semi-finished molds suffer from slight degradations
resulting in a loss of optical design, the same isn’t true
for Autograph II®. Each Autograph II® lens is created from
a Freeform® machine, right on the spot and not from a
20th century mold. The lens is also personalized to fit the
patient’s needs and both the patient’s Rx and the optical
design are on the back of the lens which opens up the fields
of vision for the patient. Want more benefits? Autograph
II® virtually eliminates unwanted astigmatism, swim and
peripheral distortions providing maximized fields of vision.
If you ask us, there’s no competition here.
Autograph II - Office™ is a customized occupational lens designed with Shamir’s advanced progressive technology for patients requiring a wide intermediate and
a wide near zone; it is specifically created for visual needs in a small environment setting - such as an office. Autograph II - Office™ is individualized by capturing
a patient’s distinctive measurements including pupillary distance, refraction, and the measured distance of a patient’s workspace. Lens designers input this
data into Shamir’s Prescriptor® software to determine the ideal power configuration for each wearer. Produced with EyePoint Technology®, the lens eliminates
peripheral aberrations and visual distortions while providing smooth transitions between the power zones.
6. Provide “Work Conditions”:

Verify:
• You should only verify the lens at the near reading zone.
• At the Total Dynamic Reduction, point 6 - 8mm above the fitting
cross, you can find the reading prescription which will be
approximate power of the Total Dynamic Reduction from the total
reading power.
• The invisible markings will include the patient’s personal
dynamic reduction.
