In recent years, aspheric lenses have been used in various cameras and other optical instruments for reducing the size of optical systems as well as improving optical performances. Recently, we have established the evaluation method of the optical performance of the aspheric lenses, and developed a measuring method for the aspheric lenses with greater aperture or greater inclination angle using conventional equipments.
In this paper, we report the measurement result of the aspheric lenses with small aspheric value using this method and the evaluation of the accuracy of this measurement.
