We present measurements of AGN type 1 luminosity function in the forbidden line [OIII]5007Åusing data from SDSS DR7. A special attention is paid to NLSy1. A new approach in calculating the luminosity function is present. We also account for the large-scale structure variations of the Universe density. The results obtained are compared with ones from the literature. A prediction of X-ray luminosity function based on our results shows an agreement with observations. One of our preliminary conclusions is that NLSy1 seems to occupy a more narrow range in the nuclear luminosity than BLSy1, but the average values are within errors.
