Apparatuses and methods for multistage molding of contact lenses containing low oxygen permeable components or oxygen impermeable components. Components may be embedded within a contact lens by forming a device on a polymer substrate, molding a spacer onto a male mold, bonding the device to the spacer, removing the polymer substrate, and molding the remainder of the contact lens.

Apparatuses and methods for multistage molding of lenses

A method comprises capturing at least one image of an eye of a user; processing the at least one image to obtain at least one metric of the eye, wherein the obtained at least one metric comprises at least one of: a sagittal depth of the eye of the user for at least one semi-meridian radial distance outside the cornea, a diameter of the cornea of the eye, a position of a center of the pupil or first Purkinje image of the eye, a radius of curvature of the cornea, or a position of the lids of the eye, and an aperture height between the lids; and determining, based on the at least one metric, at least one parameter of a first contact lens to be worn on the eye with display eyewear or a second contact lens to be worn on the eye without the display eyewear.

Automated contact lens design through image capture of the eye

A contact lens constructed to limit the water transmissibility of at least one area of the lens while maintaining at least a minimum oxygen transmissibility. The water transmissibility maximum and oxygen permeability minimum are achieved by a predetermined lens thickness of a single lens material or by the use of two or more material layers.

Contact lens

A method comprises: disposing a measurement contact lens upon an eye of a user; capturing at least one image of the eye and the measurement contact lens with an image sensor while the measurement contact lens is on the eye of the user and the eye is illuminated; processing the at least one image to obtain a centration of the measurement contact lens on the cornea of the eye; processing the at least one image to obtain an angular orientation of the measurement contact lens on the cornea of the eye; and determining, based on the centration and angular orientation of the measurement contact lens on the cornea of the eye, at least one parameter of a first contact lens to be worn on the eye with display eyewear or a second contact lens to be worn on the eye without the display eyewear.

Automated contact lens design through image capture of an eye wearing a reference contact lens

In general, one aspect disclosed features a mixed reality eyewear, comprising: a frame configured to be worn by a wearer; a lens attached to the frame and aligned with an eye of the wearer; a display panel attached to the frame and configured to render an image not aligned with an eye of the wearer; and a deformable beam combiner attached to the frame between the lens and an eye of the wearer and configured to reflect the rendered image toward the eye of the wearer.

Mixed reality eyewear with deformable beam combiner

Some embodiments provide display eyewear with auditory enhancement. In general, one aspect disclosed features a head-wearable apparatus comprising: a microphone; a display panel visible to the wearer; a gaze tracker configured to determine a direction of a gaze of a wearer of the head-wearable apparatus; and a controller configured to: extract speech from sound collected by the microphone from the determined direction, and present the extracted speech on the display panel.

Display eyewear with auditory enhancement

A method comprises: disposing a physical landmark upon an eye of a user; capturing at least one image of the eye of the user with an image sensor while the eye is illuminated, wherein the image includes an image of the physical landmark and at least one other point on the surface of the eye outside of the cornea; processing the at least one image to obtain at least one metric of the eye of the user; and determining, based on the at least one metric, at least one parameter of a daily use contact lens to be worn on the eye of the user.

Contact lens and eyewear frame design using physical landmarks placed on the eye

A method comprises: capturing, with an image sensor, at least one image of a head of a user, wherein the at least one image includes an image of an eye of the user; processing the at least one image to obtain position information for features of the head and eye of the user; and determining, based on the position information for the features of the head and eye of the user, at least one parameter of a daily use eyewear frame.

Automated eyewear frame design through image capture

Contact lenses, methods and systems for accomplishing the requirement for biocompatibility of oxygen delivery to the eye, and the cornea in particular, when elements and components are used which reduce the transmissibility of oxygen and which require coverage of a significant area of the non-vascularized cornea. A contact lens assembly is provided, comprising: an anterior surface, a posterior surface and at least one element or component having a substantially low oxygen permeability disposed within the lens. The contact lens also includes a layer having an oxygen permeability greater than the aforementioned element or component. The thickness of this layer is such that the layer provides an equivalent oxygen percentage to the cornea beneath the aforementioned element or component.

Contact lens and method and systems for constructing a contact lens

An optical article of manufacture and a method of making the article of manufacture are disclosed. The article of manufacture includes an optical component including a junction between a first region having a first optical power and a second region having a second optical power. The first optical power is different from the second optical power. The article further includes an occlusion ring included in the optical component and aligned with the junction. The method includes forming a thin film polymer layer on a substrate. The method further includes forming an occlusion ring on the thin film polymer layer. The occlusion ring has an inner occlusion ring region and an outer occlusion ring region. The method further includes forming an outer wire grid polarizer on the outer occlusion ring region.

Article of manufacture including occlusion ring having inner/outer regions with orthogonal polarizations

An apparatus and method for providing pixelated occlusion is disclosed. The apparatus includes a display, a unitary and transmissive optical component, and a contact lens. The display provides a display image. The unitary reflective and transmissive optical component receives the display image and forms a reflected display image having a first polarization and receives a scene image and forms a transmitted scene image. The contact lens forms a combined image including the reflected display image and the transmitted scene image. The pixelated display includes one or more occluding pixels having a second polarization with the first polarization substantially orthogonal to the second polarization. The pixelated display is included anterior to the unitary and reflective optical component.
