Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 9801 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 172, Optics and photonics, Subcommittee SC 7,
Ophthalmic optics and instruments.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 9801:1997), which has undergone a minor
revision to update normative references and to include a second standard diameter (see 4.3.2).

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 9801:2009(E)

Ophthalmic instruments — Trial case lenses
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies requirements for mounted ophthalmic full and/or reduced aperture trial
case lenses for the determination of the refractive error of the eye.
This International Standard takes priority over ISO 15004-1, if differences exist.
2 Normative references
The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated
references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced
document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 7944, Optics and optical instruments — Reference wavelengths
ISO 13666, Ophthalmic optics — Spectacle lenses — Vocabulary
ISO 15004-1:2006, Ophthalmic instruments — Fundamental requirements and test methods — Part 1:
General requirements applicable to all ophthalmic instruments
3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 13666 and the following apply.
3.1
trial case lens
lens, in a mount, used to assess the refractive error of the human eye
3.2
full-aperture trial case lens
trial case lens with a protective mount of maximal practical wall thickness of approximately 1 mm, allowing the
maximum available free lens aperture
3.3
reduced-aperture trial case lens
trial case lens with the designated free lens aperture significantly less than the mount outer diameter, allowing
for considerable reductions in lens thicknesses to be made
3.4
additive power trial case lens set
train of spherical, cylindrical or spherocylindrical combination of trial case lenses, in which the measured back-
vertex power at the last surface equals the meridional sums of the labelled values of the train lenses when
each element is placed in its specified frame cell

3.5
lens power
〈spherical lens〉 back-vertex power, expressed in dioptres (D)
3.6
lens power
〈cylindrical lens〉 back-vertex power in the principal meridian not equal to zero, expressed in dioptres (D)
NOTE Cylindrical trial case lenses have one principal meridian with zero power.
3.7
prismatic power
〈prismatic lens, prism〉 prismatic effect, measured as the displacement, in centimetres, of the light ray in a
plane perpendicular to its line of incidence on the lens at a distance of 1 m
