25、 film. This part of ISO 18369 covers rigid (hard) corneal and scleral contact lenses, as well as soft contact lenses. Rigid lenses maintain their own shape unsupported and are made of transparent optical-grade plastics, such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB), polyacr
26、ylate/siloxane copolymers, rigid polysiloxanes (silicone resins), butylstyrenes, fluoropolymers, and fluorosiloxanes, etc. Soft contact lenses are easily deformable and require support for proper shape. A very large subset of soft contact lenses consists of transparent hydrogels containing water in
27、concentrations greater than 10 %. Soft contact lenses can also be made of non-hydrogel materials, e.g. flexible polysiloxanes (silicone elastomers). The ISO 18369 series is applicable to determining allowable tolerances of parameters and properties important for proper functioning of contact lenses
28、as optical devices. The ISO 18369 series includes tolerances for single vision contact lenses, bifocal lenses, lenses that alter the flux density and/or spectral composition of transmitted visible light (tinted or pigmented contact lenses, such as those with enhancing, handling, and/or opaque tints)
29、, and lenses that significantly attenuate ultraviolet radiation (UVR absorbing lenses). The ISO 18369 series covers contact lenses designed with spherical, toric, and aspheric surfaces, and recommended methods for the specification of contact lenses. The vocabulary portion (2.1) of this part of ISO
30、18369 contains the terms and definitions primarily used in the contact lens field. A list of terms having special symbols is given in Table 1. The list of terms and definitions does not include all ISO terms, definitions, and symbols used in the contact lens field. It is intended to be a convenient
31、reference source from which the contents have been compiled from the text of this and other ISO standards applicable to the manufacture, evaluation, measurement, labelling and marketing of contact lenses and contact lens care products. An alphabetical index was added for rapid finding of terms. Word
32、s are grouped under several topics by reference number according to the general category into which each word logically fitted. The preferred form of each term is listed on the first line after its reference number. Other admitted forms have been placed on subsequent lines after the preferred form.
33、All admitted terms are given in bold-faced type. A few obsolete and superseded terms are listed for historical reference and convenience and as an aid to comprehension but are indicated as deprecated and are no longer to be used. Obsolete and superseded terms are not in bold-faced type so that they
34、may be clearly identified as terms used historically. Figure 1 gives a schema of the classification and provides examples. It does not take into account all possible characteristics (hence resulting qualifiers) used in contact lens designation. Combinations of more than one qualifier are often used
35、in contact lens designation.

36、tics Contact lenses Part 1: Vocabulary, classification system and recommendations for labelling specifications 1 Scope This part of ISO 18369 identifies and defines the terms applicable to the physical, chemical and optical properties of contact lenses, their manufacture and uses. It provides a voca
37、bulary of terms and, when appropriate, the international symbol and abbreviation associated with a specific term. This part of ISO 18369 also defines the terms relating to contact lens care products. It also incorporates the classifications of contact lens materials and gives recommendations for the
38、 labelling of the specifications of contact lenses. 2 Terms, definitions and symbols 2.1 Terms and definitions 2.1.1 Basic terms 2.1.1.1 contact lens any ophthalmic lens designed to be worn on the front surface of the eye NOTE This term includes contact lenses of plano power. 2.1.1.2 corneal contact
