Optimizing a spectacle lens for a wearer of implanted intraocular lenses. The method includes providing individual refraction data on the at least one eye of the spectacle wearer; defining an individual eye model in which at least a shape and/or power of a cornea, in particular a corneal front surface, of a model eye, a cornea-lens distance, parameters of the lens of the model eye, and a lens-retina distance are defined as parameters of the individual eye model. Here, defining the parameters of the individual eye model takes place on the basis of data on visual acuity correction of the at least one eye having the intraocular lens and further on the basis of individual measurement values for the eye of the spectacle wearer and/or standard values and/or on the basis of the provided individual refraction data such that the model eye has the provided individual refraction data.

Method and apparatus optimizing spectacle lenses for wearers of implanted intraocular lenses

A computer-implemented method, including: capturing a nominal refractive power and/or a nominal astigmatism in a near reference point of the lens, determining a corrective value of the vertical or horizontal prism in the near reference point of the lens; modifying the nominal refractive power and/or the nominal astigmatism in the near reference point on the basis of the corrective value of the vertical or horizontal prism of the lens; determining a continuous course of the nominal refractive power or the nominal astigmatism along the main line of the lens on the basis of the modified refractive power and/or nominal astigmatism in the near reference point; and calculating or optimizing the lens on the basis of the modified nominal refractive power and/or nominal astigmatism in the near reference point and the determined course of the nominal refractive power and/or the nominal astigmatism along the main line.

Method for taking into consideration different long-distance and short-distance prismatic corrections

A computer-implemented method for calculating or assessing a spectacles lens for an eye of a spectacles wearer. The method includes (a) providing an association of at least one imaging property or aberration of a spectacle lens system with the vision of the spectacles wearer, or of an average spectacles wearer, when observing an object through the spectacles lens system; (b) determining or prescribing a target function for the spectacles lens to be calculated or assessed, in which the association from step (a) is to be evaluated; and (c) calculating or assessing the spectacles lens to be calculated or assessed by evaluating the target function, wherein the target function is evaluated at least once.

Optimizing a spectacle lens taking account of a vision model

A method, a device, and a corresponding computer program product for calculating (optimizing) and producing a spectacle lens with the aid of a semi-personalized eye model. In one approach, the method includes providing personalized refraction data of at least one eye of the spectacles wearer; establishing a personalized eye model in which at least the parameters: shape of an anterior corneal surface of a model eye; a cornea-lens distance; parameters of the lens of the model eye; and lens-retina distance are established using personalized measured values for the eye of the spectacles wearer, and/or using standard values, and/or using the provided personalized refraction data, such that the model eye has the provided personalized refraction data, wherein at least the establishment of the lens-retina distance takes place via calculation.

In a method for creating a design of a prescription surface of a multifocal lens, in particular for a progressive spectacle lens, at first data and second data for describing at least one aberration of an eye of a proband for a first situation of use and a second situation of use, respectively, are obtained, and then a first set of parameters and a second set of parameters of a predetermined prescription surface equation are determined from the first and second data, wherein the prescription surface equation is assigned to a first reference point of the prescription surface for the first set of parameters, and is assigned to a second reference point of the prescription surface for the second set of parameters.

Optimizing and producing a lens by defining an individual eye model, in which a shape of a corneal front surface of a model eye, and a reference aberration at an evaluation surface within the model eye are defined based on individual measurement values for the lens wearer's eye, on standard values, or based on provided individual refraction data; specifying first and second surfaces for the lens to be optimized; determining the path of a main ray through a visual point a surface of the lens into the model eye up to the evaluation surface; evaluating an aberration of a wavefront propagating along the main ray and resulting from a spherical wavefront incident on the first surface of the lens at the evaluation surface in comparison to the reference aberration; and iteratively varying the surface of the lens until the evaluated aberration corresponds to a predetermined target aberration.

Adjustment of an eyeglass lens or a pair of eyeglasses by means of an individual brightness-dependent centering of an eyeglass lens. In particular, a method for adjusting an individual eyeglass lens for at least one eye of an eyeglass wearer, including: defining an individual usage situation which comprises at least one target brightness value for the light to be captured by the at least one eye; determining a position of the pupil in at least one direction of view of the at least one eye which occurs or is expected at the at least one target brightness value; determining a reference point of the eyeglass lens, in which the eyeglass lens effects a required correction of individual refraction data for the at least one direction of view; on the basis of the determined individual value of the pupil position, providing and arranging the eyeglass lens in such a manner that the at least one reference point of the eyeglass lens is arranged in front of the at least one eye of the eyeglass wearer.
