Abstract:
1. A first computer program embodied on a computer-readable medium which adapts a client general purpose computer which determines and transmits optical lens sizing and prescription data comprising: (a) a code segment for retrieving a stored image of a represented optical lens object; (b) a code segment for deriving said optical lens object center coordinates from said stored image; (c) a code segment for deriving a starting radian of said optical lens object center coordinates from said stored image; (d) a code segment for centering a retrieved stored image; (e) a code segment for deriving the radial shape of said optical lens object from said stored image; (f) a code segment for deriving the size of said derived radial shape of said optical lens object from said stored image; (g) a code segment for smoothing said derived radial shape; (h) a code segment for identifying and retrieving patient related information from said scanned image; (i) a code segment for transmitting said derived optical lens object radial shape, size, center and patient related information from a client central processing unit to a server general purpose computer, said server general purpose computer executing a second computer program which adapts the server general purpose computer to communicate with the client general purpose computer in response to said client computer's transmission of said derived optical lens object radial shape, size, center and patient related information.
