Abstract
A spectacle lens design includes an aperture and at least two ring-shaped focusing structures surrounding the aperture. The aperture has a dioptric power, and the ring-shaped focusing structures surrounding the aperture provide an additional power relative to the dioptric power of the aperture. A ring-shaped diffuser is arranged between neighboring ring-shaped focusing structures. Neighboring ring-shaped focusing structures can adjoin each other with a ring-shaped contact line between them forming the ring-shaped diffuser. Neighboring ring-shaped focusing structures can also be arranged at a distance to each other and at least one of the ring-shaped focusing structures provides a ring shaped focal line. Neighboring ring-shaped focusing structures can also be arranged at a distance to each other and at least one of the ring-shaped focusing structures consists of lenslets that adjoin each other so as to form a ring of lenslets and provides a plurality of foci along a ring shaped line.
