Base curve radius or simply base curve, abbreviated BCR or BC, is the measure of the general shape of a lens in optometry. On a spectacle lens, it is the flatter curvature of the front surface and on a contact lens it is the curvature of the back surface. Typical values for a contact lens are from 8.0 to 10.0 mm. The base curve is the radius of the sphere of the back of the lens that the prescription describes. Contact lenses must fit well to the wearer's cornea in order to be comfortable and to facilitate tear exchange and oxygen transmission.
