摘要:
The invention provides progressive addition lenses designed for uses in which a large region of intermediate refractive power is desirable. The enlarged intermediate region is provided without partial or complete elimination of the distance vision zone.
摘要:
The invention provides progressive addition lenses in which lens unwanted astigmatism is reduced and channel width through the intermediate and near vision zones is increased as compared to conventional progressive addition lenses. This result is achieved by combining a progressive addition surface with a first dioptric add power with at least one optical element that provides additional dioptric add power to the lens.
摘要:
A method for providing a contact lens for a patient. According to this method, an optical preform is selected, and a resting position of the optical preform on the patient's eye is determined. An optical feature is also located on a patient's eye. Then, a reference position is located on the surface of the optical preform coincident with the optical feature on the patients eye, when the optical preform is in the resting position. Finally, the optical modification is machined on the optical preform at a location based on the reference position on the optical preform.
摘要:
A method for making improved optical quality lenses is described which includes arranging a mold having a molding surface, a curable optical quality resin composition, and a plastic lens preform of optical quality material such that the resin composition is disposed between, and in contact with, the plastic lens preform and the mold; upon curing, the resin composition forms a cured plastic attached portion that is bonded to the plastic lens preform. The resin composition and plastic lens preform are selected such that the attached portion has a higher scratch resistance, a lower chromatic aberration, and/or a higher ease of edging than the lens preform.
摘要:
A pair of intraocular lenses for restoring visual function to a patient with central field loss. The pair of intraocular lenses includes a first lens for implantation into a first eye of the patient to provide vision of targets located at a distance greater than five feet from the first eye and a second lens for implantation into a second eye of the patient to provide vision of targets at a distance less than twelve inches from the second eye. The first and second lenses each include a prismatic wedge for shifting retinal images to a functional portion of a retina of each respective first and second eye.

摘要:
A multifocal lens useful as a contact lens or implantable as an intraocular lens which comprises at least 3 zones, the first zone comprising a polymer of a specified refractive index, the second zone comprising a polymer having the same repeating units as the polymer comprising the first zone and having a specified refractive index differing from the refractive index of the polymer comprising the first zone by not more than 0.1 units and by not less than 0.01 units and the third zone between the first and second zones comprising a polymer having the same repeating units as the polymers comprising the first and second zones and having a refractive index continuously variable between that of the polymer comprising the first zone and that of the polymer comprising the second zone, the at least three zones being transparent and having no discontinuities visible to the human eye between the zones.
摘要:
An intraocular lens is treated to form a modified passivated outer surface for reducing or eliminating biological reactions of inflammatory origin when the lens is implanted into an eye. The lens is formed from a conventional lens implant material, such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), which is treated as required to create an outer surface region including a relatively high density of hydroxyl groups. This outer surface region is reacted with a selected fluorocarbon carried in a solution with a primer including bonding agents for bonding the fluorocarbon with respect to the hydroxyl groups, thereby creating a thin, substantially inert or passivated outer surface resistant to irritative reaction with tissue or cells when the lens is implanted into the eye.
