Photometry:

Photometry is the examination of the gathering of light rays after they are incident on the eye, which measures the degree of difference in gathering and dispersion between the examined eye and the orthopic eye, using the state of the orthopic eye as a standard. Since many people will almost always be associated with eyeglasses in their lifetime, optometry is one of the most basic, common but important tasks for optometrists, so as far as the term optometry is concerned, it is very familiar to both ophthalmologists and the general public in social life.

The optometry is mainly to check the deformation of the eye, generally use two methods, one is to use the instrument to check, you can initially measure the deformation of the eye, one is to use the lens to try to replace, with a pair of glasses with interchangeable lenses, to determine the number of glasses need to wear, so as to be able to match a pair of suitable glasses. Large optical stores use the above two methods of optometry.
