FAQ

Universal Trial Frames UB 3/UB 3+, UB 4 and UB 6 are all suitable for any trial lens conforming to DIN EN ISO 9801 and having a rim diameter of 38 mm, such as a OCULUS “tl” trial lens.
However, our Universal Trial Frame UB 5 for small heads requires trial lenses of the “tls” line with a diameter of 28 mm. These also conform to DIN EN ISO 9801 and are available nowhere in the world but from OCULUS.

The UB 5 was developed for small heads, which means that it will fit many adults as well, especially among the elderly. It has a PD range of 40-72 mm. In order to achieve such low PD values without changing the lens diameter (21 mm) it was necessary to reduce the rim diameter. That’s the simple idea behind the OCULUS UB 5: It’s ideally suited for small heads including those of children.

Yes, all spare parts are available. Please contact the distributor from whom you bought your trial frame.

Yes, all components of every one of our Universal Trial Frames are assembled manually with great precision. Here too, we stay true to our quality claim: Made in Germany – made by OCULUS.

Yes, polarizing filters are always optionally available. Those for the UB 6 have a clip for easy mounting, while those for the UB 4 and UB 5 are to be directly slipped onto the trial frame.
Polarizing filters with a clip as well as those of the slip-on type are for lateral mounting and can be easily flipped to the side when not needed.
On the UB 3/UB 3+ the polarizing filter has a central mount and can be simply removed after use. All linear polarizing filters are reversible.
Circular polarizing filters are available both with a clip and in a slip-on version.
There are also circular polarizing filters available in trial lens size for use in a slot of the rear lens holder if one should be free.

To mount the polarizing filter, insert the pin of the filter into the transverse borehole in the trial frame and push the pin in until it locks into the place the first time. This is the top position, and it is used for testing distance vision. To test near vision, push the polarizing filter all the way down until it locks into place in the bottom position. This procedure is also described in the instructions for use delivered with the polarizing filters.

If necessary we recommend cleaning your trial frames with a soft lint-free cloth only. To clean a heavily soiled trial frame you can use a damp cloth and a little household dishing-washing liquid. Never use alcohol, ether or similar solvents, let alone aggressive chlorinated, scouring or corrosive detergents.
For disinfection we recommend disinfection cloths such as Pursept®-A Xpress or Mikrozid® Sensitive Wipes from Schülke und Mayr GmbH. Please contact your OCULUS distributor so that they can order through OCULUS, or contact the source supplier directly: www.schuelke.com.

The UB 5. Use the operating element (knob) to set the nose pad to the desired height, then pull the knob out slightly. This locks the nose pad at the set height.

Yes, it conforms to DIN EN ISO 8429.

The warranty period is one year from delivery, or from acceptance, if acceptance is required.

Universal Trial Frames UB 3+, UB 4, UB 5 and UB 6 are all delivered in a telescopic cardboard box.
This telescopic box has been designed so that it can be used for storing the trial frame in a drawer or together with the refraction unit. It is lined with hard-wearing PE foam to protect the trial frame.

Yes. None of the OCULUS Universal Trial Frames contains latex.

note: specifications are subject to change!

The transparent sighting bar has one scale on its surface and one inside. Take your VD reading when you see the two scales in alignment. The millimetre values on the scale refer to the eye-side vertex of a trial lens located in the first slot of the rear lens holder (next to the trial frame body).

DIN EN ISO 1366 defines VD as follows: absolute value of the distance between the rear surface of the spectacle lens and the corneal apex measured along the line of sight, i.e. orthogonally to the plane of the rim.
The measurement should be taken with the reference lens in the first slot of the rear lens holder (next to the trial frame body).
