An eyeglass lens processing apparatus includes: a processing tool configured to process a periphery of a lens; a movement portion configured to change a relative position between the lens and the processing tool; a positional data acquiring portion configured to acquire positional data related to a corner portion of an edge of the lens before the lens is finished and after the lens is roughed; a processing control data acquiring portion configured to acquire corner portion processing control data for removing a chip adhering to the lens through roughing, based on the positional data acquired by the positional data acquiring portion; and a processing control portion configured to control the movement portion based on the corner portion processing control data so as to remove the chip adhering to the lens.

This method, which allows acquisition and computation of geometrical data of at least one pattern associated with an ophthalmic object (6) for manufacturing ophthalmic lenses similar to the object or complementary thereto, is of the type in which a device (12) for acquiring and computing geometrical data is used, which comprises: a transparent support (13) adapted for bearing an ophthalmic object; on one side of the support, means (17) for illuminating this support; on the other side of the support, a video camera (25) adapted for producing a video signal representative of at least one pattern associated with the ophthalmic object laid on the support; and signal processing and analysis means (27) receiving at the input the video signal produced by the camera, and adapted for computing and providing the geometrical data. The method is characterized in that: (a) a verification pattern independent of said geometrical data is traced on the ophthalmic object (6), this verification pattern being asymmetrical relatively to each of two axes perpendicular to each other; (b) the ophthalmic object is positioned on the transparent support (13) of the acquisition and display device (12); and (c) by means of said device (12), said verification pattern is optically captured and analyzed.

A terminal device for assisting operation of a plurality of eyeglass manufacturing apparatuses which are used for performing different processes in manufacturing eyeglasses includes: a communicating device configured to communicate with the plurality of eyeglass manufacturing apparatuses; a processor; and memory storing computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, causing the terminal device to execute: a setting instruction for setting, according to a process, a specific eyeglass manufacturing apparatus from the plurality of eyeglass manufacturing apparatuses as an eyeglass manufacturing apparatus of which the operation is assisted; and a controlling instruction for controlling the communicating device to send an operating signal input in the terminal device to the specific eyeglass manufacturing apparatus set by the setting instruction or controlling the communicating device to receive an input signal input in the specific eyeglass manufacturing apparatus set by the setting instruction.
