The current invention is directed to a computer-implemented method for providing a lens shape for an ophthalmic lens. Further, there is provided a method for angular smoothing of a surface determined by carrier lines radially outwards of a prescription zone bordered by a first boundary line. Further, there is provided an ophthalmic lens, in particular a spectacle lens. Further, a method for minimizing the difference in thickness between two ophthalmic lenses for the same spectacles. A computer program product and a machine readable storage medium are provided as well.

This invention provides for the fabrication of ophthalmic lenses via the utilization of DMD shows and/or DMD files. More specifically, the use of the DMD shows and/or DMD files to generate lens precursor designs comprising described features to form part of a substructure for the fluid reactive media portion of the lens precursor and wherein the lens precursor can generate particular ophthalmic lens designs in a free-form manner using methods described herein.

Devices and methods for measuring high order aberrations from an eye are described. A method includes obtaining information indicating one or more aberrations of an eye, and obtaining information indicating one or more of a visual axis of the eye, a center of a pupil of the eye, and a comeal vertex of the eye. The information from the optical device is used to modify a design of a contact lens so that a combination of the eye and the modified contact lens has reduced high order aberrations. In some cases, information indicating the orientation of the contact lens positioned on the eye is also used. The optical device may include an aberrometer; a first light source for providing first light toward an eye; a lens assembly for collecting light from the eye; and a first image sensor for receiving light that has been transmitted through the lens assembly.

A helmet assembly includes a face shield and a single, center top mounting arrangement that operatively connects a center top location of the face shield to a center front mount on the helmet. The face shield can be raised and lowered about a pivot axis provided in the mounting arrangement between a tilted up, non-use position and a lowered, deployed position. The mounting arrangement can include a detent and two recesses, wherein the detent engages a first recess at a slightly forwardly displaced position to allow ventilation between the helmet and mandible and the face shield and a second recess at the tilted up, non-use position. The recess and detent engagement can be overcome by easy manual force acting on the face shield to reposition the face shield.

Embodiments concern an intraocular implantable device operable comprising a disk-shaped body having a symmetry axis and which further comprises a light-transmissive portion and an opaque portion wherein the light-transmissive portion is decentered with respect to the symmetry axis.

The invention provides an improved rotationally stabilized contact lens design and method of designing such a lens which minimizes stabilization time of the lens while maximizing the lens on-eye comfort. The lens and the method of designing the lens further improves upon an earlier method which utilizes and combines non-circularity and thickness differential aspects which results in equivalent or minimized stabilization time, ease of insertion and manufacturability as well as maximum comfort that is improved over that of what either aspect can achieve independently. This further improvement of stiffness profile is achieved by optimizing and selectively addressing thickness differential both diametrically and circumferentially in a non-round lens design.

A decentered type contact lens including: an optical zone provided in a center part of the contact lens; a peripheral zone provided on an outer circumference of the optical zone; an optical center of the optical zone being set to deviate from a lens geometric center; and a circumferential direction alignment mechanism for setting a lens circumferential direction position in a worn state, the contact lens being characterized in that: a center-of-gravity deviation in relation to the lens geometric center is set for the peripheral zone, and a center-of-gravity position shift accompanying deviation of the optical center of the optical zone in relation to the lens geometric center is corrected by offset using the center-of-gravity deviation of the peripheral zone.
