2、tional Standard requires review by ANSI that therequirements for due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval havebeen met by the standards developer.Consensus is established when, in the judgement of the ANSI Board ofStandards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly an
3、dmaterially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more thana simple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that allviews and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be madetowards their resolution.The use of American National Standards is completely

14、2013.)This standard was developed by a group of experts under the direction of the ANSIInstrument subcommittee chair, William L. Brown, O.D., Ph.D. This standard definesthe requirement for devices that measure the sphere and cylindrical vertex power,prismatic power and axis for spectacle and contact
15、 lenses. Accuracy requirementsfor tolerances or deviation of readings are also defined.In this revised standard, a method is added for checking the cylinder power and cylin-der axis requirements for focimeters that measure sphere, cylinder and axis simulta-neously.Suggestions for improvement of this
16、 standard will be welcome. Comments should besent to The Vision Council, 225 Reinekers Lane, Suite 700, Alexandria, VA 22314.This standard was processed and approved for submittal to ANSI by the AccreditedStandards Committee on Ophthalmic Optics, Z80.
