This invention relates to comfortable ophthalmic devices and methods of producing such devices by treating a polymerized ophthalmic lens with a polymeric wetting agent, wherein the ophthalmic lens does not comprise said polymeric wetting agent prior to its polymerization.

Comfortable ophthalmic device and methods of its production

This invention relates to comfortable ophthalmic devices and methods of producing such devices.

This invention relates to comfortable ophthalmic devices and methods of producing such devices by treating unhydrated, polymerized ophthalmic lens with a polymeric wetting agent, wherein the ophthalmic lens formulation does not comprise said wetting agent prior to its polymerization.

This invention relates to comfortable ophthalmic devices and methods of producing such devices by treating said ophthalmic lens with a wetting agent and packaging solution.

This invention relates to comfortable ophthalmic devices and methods of producing such devices. The ophthalmic devices are contacted with a polyamide wetting agent and heated to a temperature of at least about 50&#xb0; C. to about 150&#xb0; C.

The invention provides methods for designing contact lenses and contact lenses designed according to the method, which lenses provide an improved method for presbyopia correction compared to conventional lenses and methods. It is a discovery of the invention that improved performance and reduced design time can be obtained by using lens pairs that act synergistically to provide the lens wearer with good binocularity and consistent performance in near, intermediate and distance vision.

Lenses for the correction of presbyopia and methods of designing the lenses

A method of providing a polymerized ophthalmic lens in which a polymerized ophthalmic lens is heated with a packaging solution comprising about 100 ppm to about 3,000 ppm of a wetting agent after its polymerization, and the ophthalmic lens formulation not having the wetting agent prior to its polymerization.

The invention provides contact lenses which have improved dynamic stabilization and that utilize one or more thin zones in the lens' periphery.

Methods for rotationally stabilizing contact lenses

The invention provides methods for designing contact lenses that provides improved efficiency in lens design compared to conventional methods. It is a discovery of the invention that improved performance and reduced design time can be obtained by utilizing a visual performance prediction model as a part of the design process.

Method of designing multifocal contact lenses

The invention provides methods for designing contact lenses that takes into account pupil size and vergence. The lenses of the invention augment the eye's accommodative gain and take advantage of the eye's residual accommodation amplitude.

Method for designing multifocal contact lenses

The invention provides lenses contact lenses which have improved dynamic stabilization and that utilize one or more thin zones in the lens' periphery.

The invention provides a lens in which the lens periphery is controlled as to each of thickness differential and both the rate of change from thinner to thicker regions and the shape of the transition from thinner to thicker regions within each of the dual thin zones. The lens of the invention substantially reduces the time for the lens' auto-positioning. Additionally, the lenses of the invention maintain their on-eye orientation better as compared to conventionally stabilized lenses.
