Summary An integrated system is described which we have found useful for efficiently collecting and analyzing both static and dynamic accommodation data using the Canon Autoref R‐1 refractometer. The system consists of hardware modifications and software designed to both facilitate the measurement of accommodation and to process the resulting data. Several features of the Canon R‐1, which may not be evident to some users, are also described. A program written in Microsoft C/C++ running under DOS, and designed for use on a PC, is available from the authors upon request.
