    摘要: A method of quantifying the effect of peripheral optical errors on patient locomotion includes projecting a pattern on the floor that includes a discrete shapes and empty spaces between the discrete shapes. The method also includes tracking a position of the participant along the pattern as the participant traverses the pattern, and determining foot placement accuracy, utilizing a optical motion capture system and a computer, as the participant walked through the pattern by determining a total area of overlap between the participant's feet and the empty spaces of the pattern. In another embodiment, the method includes arranging obstacles in front of a participant, intermittently displaying a character in front of the participant, determining participant's accuracy in identifying or counting the characters, and determining the participant's step length and foot clearance as the participant steps over the obstacles to quantify the effect of the peripheral optical errors on the participant's locomotion.

    摘要: Apparatuses, systems, and methods for providing improved intraocular lenses (IOLs) and other refractive treatment modalities involve fabricating the IOL or developing the treatment based on a refractive profile. Exemplary techniques include obtaining a base wavefront power profile corresponding to a theoretical lens, adding a second wavefront profile defined by the combination of one or more zones described by a cosine function to obtain a final wavefront power profile, determining a refractive profile based on the final wavefront power profile, and fabricating the intraocular lens or determining the treatment based on the refractive profile.

    摘要: Apparatuses, systems and methods for providing improved intraocular lenses (IOLs), include features for reducing side effects, such as halos, glare and best focus shifts, in multifocal refractive lenses and extended depth of focus lenses. Exemplary ophthalmic lenses can include a continuous, power progressive aspheric surface based on two or more merged optical zones, the aspheric surface being defined by a single aspheric equation. Continuous power progressive intraocular lenses can mitigate optical side effects that typically result from abrupt optical steps. Aspheric power progressive and aspheric extended depth of focus lenses can be combined with diffractive lens profiles to further enhance visual performance while minimizing dysphotopsia effects. The combination can provide an increased depth of focus that is greater than an individual depth of focus of either the refractive profile or the diffractive profile.
