摘要:
An ophthalmic lens provides a cumulative ratio of distance to near focal length that is predominantly distance correction under high illumination, nearly evenly divided under moderate illumination, and favoring again distance vision correction under low level illumination. The lens is specifically adjusted to match the patient's pupil size as a function of illumination level, in the preferred embodiment by applying pupil size parameters as a function of age. This lens has the properties of matching both the distribution of near and distance focal vision correction to the type of human activity typically undertaken in various illumination conditions, as well as matching particular lens dimensions to suit the size of the pupil as a function of illumination intensity.

An aspheric lens for providing improved vision and a method for generating such a lens is described. The lens provides a sharp image focus while minimizing image aberrations. The method utilizes ray tracing techniques in conjunction with Modulation Transfer functions to accurately account for the total corrective lens-eye system. The lens may be in the form of a contact lens, an intraocular lens, a natural lens or a spectacle lens, and is suitable for correcting myopia, presbyopia, astigmatism and other focusing problems. The lens is characterized by a hyperbolic or parabolic surface which functions to reduce spherical aberrations and minimize the retinal image spot size.

A contact lens with a central portion, an iris portion, and a peripheral portion disposed about the iris portion; an effect band in or just outside the iris portion helps to provide the lens with a halo effect when worn on eye.
摘要:
An ophthalmic lens incorporating a repeating periodic wavelike pattern of pigmented lines is utilized to highlight, shade and expose the iris of the wearer to create an enhanced look without affecting the natural appearance of the iris. The ophthalmic lens incorporates the repeating periodic wavelike pattern of pigmented lines in a region corresponding to the wearer's iris.

The present provides deformable molds and methods for manufacturing ophthalmic lenses using deformable molds. The molds of the invention may be used in the custom manufacture of ophthalmic lenses.
摘要:
The invention provides a multifocal ophthalmic lens that both corrects for the wearer's refractive prescription and takes into account pupil size of a specific individual or of a population of individuals. The invention provides a lens having an optic zone having a substantially circular central zone containing over-refracted near vision power and a diameter of about 2.5 mm or less.
摘要:
The invention provides a multifocal lens that incorporates a substantially opaque ring. The lens design minimizes or eliminates ghosting of images. Additionally, the lens' performance on eye is more predictable than other progressive multifocal designs.
摘要:
The invention provides multifocal lenses for correction of presbyopia. Each of the lenses of the invention provide both distance and near vision correction by providing both a first multifocal region, a monofocal region, and a second multifocal region within the same lens.
摘要:
The invention provides methods for designing lenses useful for correcting astigmatism in which there is a progressive cylinder power. The lens of the invention permits the cylinder power to act under low luminance situations to a different extent than in higher luminance situations eliminating the need for extra toric minus power that may interefere near vision at mid range luminances while assisting distance vision at low luminance conditions.
摘要:
The invention provides methods for designing lenses useful for correcting presbyopia that permits variation of the speed of the power change from distance to near vision power or near to distance vision power. The rate of change may be symmetrical around the midpoint or faster or slower on either side of the midpoint.
