Purpose: To improve the quality of Korean progressive addition lenses, we measured the optical and geometrical elements of them and evaluated their qualities. Methods: We have measured the refractive power, the thickness at optical center and prism power for home and foreign progressive addition lenses which were distributed in the domestic market, and then have done a comparative analysis according to international standards. Results: The qualities of Korean progressive addition lens were on an equal footing with famous foreign brand products, but they were out of tolerance in a few cases.
