CDC series Radiuscope

The CDC series advanced contact lens Radiuscope (Microspherometer) is manufactured by us in the UK. It is available in the maximum number of versions to suit requirements.

The operation of measuring the "Radius of Curvature" is achieved using the Drysdale principle. Light from the target is reflected down the microscope to form an image on the surface of the lens (surface image) the display is zeroed and the stage is moved to find the (Ariel image). The distance moved is the radius of the lens, eg. 7.50mm = 45.00 diopters

Its main attributes are its ease of use, 45mm focusing travel, built-in power supply and special target resulting in excellent optical performance.
