Described herein are systems and/or methods for forming an ophthalmic lens. An example method may comprise a step of determining a power profile based on a power profile function defined by a base optical power, an amount of spherical aberration at a radial distance from a geometric center of the lens, and a bump function. The example method may comprise a step of adjusting the power profile based at least on minimizing a shape metric of a through-focus curve.

Optical lens design for flattening a through-focus curve

Provided are compounds that may function as functionalized polymerization initiators, for instance in the manufacture of ophthalmic lenses, and to methods of such manufacture. The compounds are of formula I: wherein R, R, R, R, R, T, p, q, and n are as defined herein.

Amide-functionalized polymerization initiators and their use in the manufacture of ophthalmic lenses

Contact lenses incorporate high plus or add power profiles that at least one of slow, retard or preventing myopia progression and minimize halo effect. The lens includes a center zone with a negative power for myopic vision correction; and at least one treatment zone surrounding the center zone, the at least one treatment zone having a power profile that increases from an outer margin of the center zone to a positive power within the at least one treatment zone of greater than +5.00 D.

High plus treatment zone lens design and method for preventing and/or slowing myopia progression

Contact lenses incorporate multifocal power profiles that at least one of slow, retard or preventing myopia progression. The lens includes a first zone at a center of the ophthalmic lens and at least one peripheral zone surrounding the first zone. The at least one peripheral zone has a different width and dioptric power than the first zone. The first zone and at least one peripheral zone are stepped or discontinuous. The multifocal power profile has substantially equivalent foveal vision correction to a single vision lens and has a depth of focus and reduced retinal image quality sensitivity that slows, retards, or prevents myopia progression.

Multifocal lens design for preventing and/or slowing myopia progression

Contact lenses incorporate mask lens designs that at least one of slow, retard or preventing myopia progression. The lens includes a first zone at a center of the lens; at least one peripheral zone surrounding the center and having a dioptric power that is different than that at the center; and an opaque mask beginning at a radial distance from the center, thereby providing a lens power profile having substantially equivalent foveal vision correction to a single vision lens, and having a depth of focus and reduced retinal image quality sensitivity that slows, retards, or prevents myopia progression.

Mask lens design and method for preventing and/or slowing myopia progression

Lenses incorporate freeform power profiles that at least one of slow, retard or preventing myopia progression. An ophthalmic lens includes a first zone at a center of the lens; a first peripheral region continuously extending from the center, the first peripheral region having a different dioptric power than at the center; and a second peripheral region continuously extending from the first peripheral region and having a different dioptric power than the first peripheral region, thereby providing a continuous freeform power profile having substantially equivalent visual performance to a single vision lens, and having a depth of focus and reduced retinal image quality sensitivity that slows, retards, or prevents myopia progression.

Free form lens design and method for preventing and/or slowing myopia progression

High plus treatment zone lens design for preventing and/or slowing myopia progression

A lens includes a center of the ophthalmic lens having a negative power that provides foveal vision correction for myopia; a first peripheral zone surrounding the center having a power that gradually increases to a first peak having a dioptric power that is more positive than at the center; and a second peripheral zone surrounding the first peripheral zone and having a second peak having a dioptric power that is more positive than at the center and that is different than the power at the first peak. The power profile slows, retards, or prevents myopia progression independent of pupil size.

Pupil size-independent lens design and method for preventing and/or slowing myopia progression

Contact lenses incorporate power profiles that minimize visual acuity variation for progressing myopes based upon minimization of the variation of neural sharpness image quality over a specific time period. The contact lens includes a center and at least one peripheral zone surrounding the center and having a different dioptric power than at the center. The lens has power profile selected from the group consisting of a power profile with spherical aberration, a multifocal power profile, a freeform power profile, and a segmented freeform power profile. The power profile is based on an initial paraxial power of a myopia progressor and a defined myopia progression rate over a specific time period, resulting in controlled change of the neural sharpness, thereby minimizing changes in changes in visual acuity at a beginning of the time period and at an end of the time period.

Lens design and method for minimizing visual acuity variation experienced by myopia progressors

An apparatus and method for selecting a lens that accounts for Decentration and/or Rotation Errors. The method includes obtaining results of a first wavefront exam on a patient, including a wavefront map and Zernike polynomials, selecting a first lens that improves vision, obtaining the results of a second wavefront exam including a wavefront map and Zernike polynomials, calculating the Decentration and/or Rotation Errors of the selected lens by calculating a difference between the Zernike polynomails, and selecting a second lens that better corrects accounts for the calculated Decentration and/or Rotation Errors.

Determining lens alignment on an eye using optical wavefronts

Contact lenses incorporating asymmetric radial power profiles that increase the radial dioptric power from the center to the margin of the optical zone of the lenses may be utilized to prevent and/or slow myopia progression. The power profiles vary along different meridians.
