Abstract
A progressive power lens includes a convex front surface and a concave back surface which is also a progressive power surface. A pattern including distance and near reference area marks is printed on the concave back surface. The near reference area mark includes a closed curve and a scale arranged outside the closed curve. The closed curve is designed so as to enclose near reference areas of a plurality of progressive power lenses each having different dioptric power. The scale is designed so as to indicate the amount of inset of the progressive power lens.
