    Abstract: A wearable optical device increases a Resolvable Object Distance Range (RODR) thereby reducing focusing demands of a plurality of objects located along a visual angle distance for a user with presbyopia or myopia. The devise includes a negative refractive element and a positive refractive element located along an optical axis. The negative refractive element and the positive refractive element are separated from each other by a separation space and at a separation distance suitable for mounting on a spectacle. A surface of a non-central zone of the negative refractive element or the positive refractive element is a Fresnel surface. The separation space is filled by an intermediate media with a refractive index lower than that of the negative refractive element or the positive refractive element. In one embodiment, the intermediate media is an optical grade resin or polymer. In another embodiment, a spacing seal is located around a periphery of the separation space, and the intermediate media is a low-humidity gas for reducing condensation within the separation space during ambient temperature changes.

    Abstract: Myopia is a clinically significant and growing problem around the world. A major cause is the increasing time spent indoors by children, for example, playing video games, studying, and watching television. Exposure to sufficient overall light levels is known to be protective, and prevents the onset and also delays the progression of myopia. Embodiments include a computerized myopia progression retarding (“MPR”) system that includes a light source configured to provide illumination and an illumination sensor configured to sense ambient light. The MPR system also includes a processor configured to dynamically adjust the illumination in terms of either wavelength bands or luminance provided by the light source to solicit a target wavelength band or luminance for retarding myopia progression of a user.

    Abstract: Spectacles that control myopia progression have a central zone that achieves foveal vision correction and distributed micro-reticle(s) and corresponding micro-lens(es) around the paracentral and/or peripheral zone of the spectacle. Each micro-lens is disposed between its corresponding micro-reticle and the pupil of a wearer's eye. The micro-reticle(s) and micro-len(s) are integrated with the structure of the spectacle to partially block some of the paracentral and/or peripheral objects from surrounding optical environment. The rest of the paracentral and/or peripheral retinal areas are still available for a wearer's eye to sense the presence and movement of surrounding objects.
