Abstract

The invention is directed to a multifocal surface for a multifocal lens which, for a short progression zone between a far-vision zone and near-vision zone, has a large usable width of this zone and the near-vision zone, and for which the maximum value, which the surface astigmatism reaches on the multifocal surface, is less than the 1.1 multiple of the surface increment. Such a multifocal surface is obtained when this surface is configured as twice continuously differentiable and satisfies a combination of six features which relate to the distribution of surface astigmatism and mean surface refractive power across the multifocal surface.
