Abstract A projection type lensmeter in which the target image for measuring the refractive power of a lens is projected on a screen and the projected image is magnified and observed through a magnifying observation optical system including a collimator lens having a focal length f1 adapted to collimate light projected from the target image, and a projection lens having a focal length f2 adapted to project light from the target image to the screen. The magnifying observation optical system has an effective diameter phi and a magnification m2. The focal lengths f1 and f2, the effective diameter phi , and the magnification m2 satisfy the following relations: 25 mm</=f1</=30 mm 409 mm</=f2</=600 mm 60 mm</= phi </=70 mm 1.25</=m2</=1.83. The overall magnification of the lensmeter is 30 or greater.
