Abstract
A machine for processing an edge profile of an ophthalmic lens. The machine is defined by mutually perpendicular X, Y and Z axes. The machine comprises a machine frame, a lens holder unit for selectively holding the ophthalmic lens, a laser scanner unit for determining an edge profile of the ophthalmic lens mounted to the lens holder unit, and a main controller operatively connected to each of the lens holder unit and the laser scanner unit. The lens holder unit is configured to selectively rotate the ophthalmic lens around a C-axis of the lens holder unit, tilt the ophthalmic lens relative to the laser scanner unit and move rectilinearly relative to the machine frame in the directions of the Y axis. The laser scanner unit is selectively moveable rectilinearly relative to the machine frame in the directions of the X and Z axes.
