Abstract
A multi-zonal monofocal opthalmic lens comprises an inner zone, an intermediate zone, and an outer zone. The inner zone has a first optical power. The intermediate zone surrounds the inner zone and has a second optical power that is different from the first power by a magnitude that is less than at least about 0.75 Diopter. The outer zone surrounds the intermediate zone and has a third optical power different from the second optical power. In certain embodiments, the third optical power is equal to the first optical power.
