Abstract
An ophthalmic lens has a complex surface with a fitting cross, a progression meridian having a power addition greater than or equal to 1.5 diopters between far vision and near vision reference points. The complex surface has within a circle of radius 20 mm centered on the geometrical center of the lens, a cylinder value normalized to the addition of less than 0.8, and a rebound of the sphere quantity normalized to the addition of less than 0.04 on said circle. The surface also has a progression length less than or equal to 14 mm, defined as the vertical distance between the fitting cross and the point on the meridian for which the mean sphere reaches 85% of the addition. The lens is suited to hypermetropic wearers with a good perceptual comfort in peripheral vision and good accessibility in near vision.
