摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for improving overall vision in patients suffering from a loss of vision in a portion of the retina (e.g., loss of central vision) by providing symmetric or asymmetric optic with aspheric surface which redirects and/or focuses light incident on the eye at oblique angles onto a peripheral retinal location. The intraocular lens can include a redirection element (e.g., a prism, a diffractive element, or an optical component with a decentered GRIN profile) configured to direct incident light along a deflected optical axis and to focus an image at a location on the peripheral retina. Optical properties of the intraocular lens can be configured to improve or reduce peripheral errors at the location on the peripheral retina. One or more surfaces of the intraocular lens can be a toric surface, a higher order aspheric surface, an aspheric Zernike surface or a Biconic Zernike surface.

An apparatus, system and method for predictive modeling to design, evaluate and optimize ophthalmic lenses is disclosed. Ophthalmic lenses may include, for example, contacts, glasses or intraocular lenses (IOLs). The apparatus, system and method may include a design tool for designing a lens for implantation in an eye having a plurality of characteristics, a simulator for simulating performance of the lens in at least one modeled eye having the plurality of characteristics, at least one input for receiving clinical performance of the lens in the eye having the plurality of characteristics, a comparator for comparing outcomes of the clinical performance and the simulated performance, and an optimizer for optimizing a subsequent one of the outcome of the clinical performance responsive to modification of the lens in accordance with modification to the simulated performance.
摘要:
Systems and methods are provided for improving overall vision in patients suffering from a loss of vision in a portion of the retina (e.g., loss of central vision) by providing a piggyback lens which in combination with the cornea and an existing lens in the patient's eye redirects and/or focuses light incident on the eye at oblique angles onto a peripheral retinal location. The piggyback lens can include a redirection element (e.g., a prism, a diffractive element, or an optical component with a. decentered GRIN profile) configured to direct incident light along a deflected optical axis and to focus an image at a location on the peripheral retina. Optical properties of the piggyback lens can be configured to improve or reduce optical errors at the location on the peripheral retina. One or more surfaces of the piggyback lens can be a tone surface, a higher order aspheric surface, an aspheric Zeraike surface or a Biconic Zernike surface to reduce optical errors in an image produced at a peripheral retinal location by light incident at oblique angles. One or more surfaces of the piggyback lens can be faceted.
摘要:
A lens, system and/or method for providing custom ocular aberrations for enhanced higher visual acuity. Scaled versions of a patient's aberration pattern may either attenuate or amplify the overall amount of ocular aberrations, to either correct or partially correct a patient's aberrations leading to enhanced visual acuity and/or extended depth of focus. This may be binocularly applied in order to provide high visual acuity in a patient at least at near, far and intermediate distances. The method may include obtaining an optimized binocular summation of both eyes of the patient; designing a first lens solution to correct or partially correct the dominant eye's aberrations according to an attenuated scaled version of a patient's ocular aberrations in the dominant eye; and designing a second lens solution to provide an additional customized extension of depth of focus by the induction of scaled patterns of ocular aberrations in the non dominant eye.
摘要:
Systems and methods for providing enhanced image quality across a wide and extended range of foci encompass vision treatment techniques and ophthalmic lenses such as contact lenses and intraocular lenses (IOLs). Exemplary IOL optics can include a circular surface structure (2IO) with limited adjacent echelettes (230) which act as a diffractive or phase shifting profile.
