English term or phrase: visual point
Le texte dit que les verres des lunettes disponibles en vente libre "accommodate the visual point of each eye but the actual fit of the spectacle lenses in front of the eye is not considered during fitting".
D'après le Webster, le visual point est "the point taken as the position of the eye in calculations of optical instruments; specifically : the optical center of the cornea-lens system as backed by the vitreous humor".
Malheureusement, je n'arrive pas trouver l'équivalent en français. Merci aux spécialistes!
