Ophthalmic tinted glass

An ophthalmic tinted glass (10) comprises a substrate-forming base eyeglass (1), a first layered structure (2) which covers a convex face (Cx) of the base eyeglass, and optionally a second layered structure (3) which covers a concave face (Cc) of the base eyeglass. The first layered structure has a function of selective reflection increase, and the second layered structure is antireflective. Such ophthalmic tinted glass produces solar protection while having a mean transmittance value in a wavelength range from 460 nm to 10 nm, or 465 nm to 495 nm, which is high enough for avoiding biological, hormonal and behavioural disorders for a wearer of the tinted glass.

Population of an eye model using measurement data in order to optimize spectacle lenses

A method, a device, and a corresponding computer program product for calculating (optimizing) and producing a spectacle lens with the aid of a semi-personalized eye model. In one approach, the method includes providing personalized refraction data of at least one eye of the spectacles wearer; establishing a personalized eye model in which at least the parameters: shape of an anterior corneal surface of a model eye; a cornea-lens distance; parameters of the lens of the model eye; and lens-retina distance are established using personalized measured values for the eye of the spectacles wearer, and/or using standard values, and/or using the provided personalized refraction data, such that the model eye has the provided personalized refraction data, wherein at least the establishment of the lens-retina distance takes place via calculation.

Method for determining an ophthalmic lens

A method for determining an ophthalmic lens adapted to a wearer, the method including: receiving wearer data including at least the ophthalmic prescription of the wearer; receiving a set of object points associated with target optical performances based on the wearer data; determining an ophthalmic lens adapted to the wearer, the ophthalmic lens providing optical performances, for light rays propagating from the set of object points to the center of rotation of the eye of the wearer passing through the ophthalmic lens, the closest to the target optical performances.

Eyewear

Provided is eyewear comprising a front piece that has a metallic wraparound end piece and a non-metallic hinge member that constitutes a hinge portion together with the wraparound end piece. Thereby eyewear that is comfortable to wear and has a metallic front piece is provided.

Rotationally stabilized contact lens

The stabilized contact lens methods and apparatus disclosed herein provide improved stabilization of a contact lens placed on a cornea of an eye. The contact lens comprises stabilization zones that allow the lens to repeatedly and consistently orient on the cornea such that a sensing zone located on the lower portion of the lens is located inferiorly to engage the lower eyelid. The stabilized contact lens can provide a lower pressure sensing zone with decreased thickness for pressure or other sensing related to the lower eyelid. The decreased thickness has the advantage of improving coupling between forces from an eyelid and a lower chamber of a fluidic module. The improved coupling allows increased amounts of fluid to move between the lower chamber and an upper optical chamber coupled to the lower chamber, such that the upper chamber can increase curvature and optical power in response to pressures of the eyelid.

Optimizing a spectacle lens taking account of a vision model

A computer-implemented method for calculating or assessing a spectacles lens for an eye of a spectacles wearer. The method includes (a) providing an association of at least one imaging property or aberration of a spectacle lens system with the vision of the spectacles wearer, or of an average spectacles wearer, when observing an object through the spectacles lens system; (b) determining or prescribing a target function for the spectacles lens to be calculated or assessed, in which the association from step (a) is to be evaluated; and (c) calculating or assessing the spectacles lens to be calculated or assessed by evaluating the target function, wherein the target function is evaluated at least once.
