A set of ophthalmic lenses is described where each ophthalmic lens has at a point of optical reference a maximum power and meets an optical performance criterion in standard wearing conditions, wherein the range of maximum powers of the set of ophthalmic lenses is greater than or equal to 10 D, and all the ophthalmic lenses of the set of ophthalmic lenses have been manufactured from a set of semi-finished lens blank, each semi-finished lens blank having the same base curve.

Aa method for manufacturing a set of semi-finished lenses and a lens from a semi-finished lens of the set and a set of semi-finished lenses each intended to be used in the manufacturing of a finished lens of determined target power, each semi-finished lens having a base curve chosen among a number N of base curves, wherein each base curve is associated to a respective range of powers of finished ophthalmic lenses to be manufactured, and each semi-finished lens of the set comprises a recorded holographic component, wherein the holographic components of the set exhibit a limited number of configurations, and each holographic component configuration is associated exclusively to one base curve among the N base curves.

A system of contact lenses includes at least two contact lenses, each lens having a visual correction for a non-rotationally symmetric eye aberration. Each lens has a different level or degree of a stabilization that is characterized by a thickness differential between a thickness of a stabilization zone and a thickness of a non-stabilization zone.

The present invention provides an apparatus for modifying a property of an eyeglass lens. The apparatus includes a transparent polymer film capable absorbing or reflecting UVA and/or UVB radiation. The film is sized and shaped for attachment to a surface the eyeglass lens.

Described herein are systems and/or methods for designing a system of contact lenses with interocular refractive disparity (i.e. anisometropia) for presbyopes. An example method may comprise a step of determining a plurality of lenses for inclusion in a system of contact lenses for treating presbyopes. Each of the plurality of lenses may be configured for an optical correction and may have a power profile associated therewith. The plurality of lenses may be grouped based on the optical correction. Each of the lenses in a particular group may have a different power profile. The example method may comprise a step of creating, based at least on the plurality of lenses and an add need, a fit guide. The fit guide may provide an interocular disparity of effective add. The interocular disparity of effective add may be determined by optimizing cyclopean performance across a range accommodative demands and light levels.

Disclosed is a distance vision-realizing eyeglasses for an image display device, including: a case which surrounds an eye area of a wearer and has a pair of holes formed in front thereof; a double convex lens assembly which includes a pair of lens housings respectively mounted in the pair of holes of the case and a pair of double convex lenses respectively provided in the pair of lens housings on a front straight line of both eyes of the wearer, the pair of the double convex lenses including an outer convex lens positioned on an outer side and fixed to the lens housing and an inner convex lens positioned inside the lens housing and mounted movably forward and backward; and a driving part which is installed between the pair of lens housings and moves a pair of inner convex lenses of the double convex lens assembly.

Progressive lenses designs are disclosed having optical parameters such as the width of a far vision zone, the width of a near vision zone, the width of a corridor, the maximum residual cylinder, the maximum gradient of residual cylinder, that vary with addition. Such lens designs may provide improved performance for individuals requiring different amounts of addition (such as individuals having different ages) who spend more time performing different types of activities such as viewing hand-held devices like smart phones and tablets or reading books.

Disclosed is a semi-finished lens that includes a blank formed in a first material having a first hardness, the blank having an outline, a first face and a second face configured to be surfaced so as to constitute a first optical face of the ophthalmic lens, and a top layer formed in a second material having a second hardness greater than the first hardness, the top layer having an outline, a first face and a second face, the second face of the top layer being arranged on the first face of the blank. The outline of the top layer is equal to or included in the outline of the blank, and satisfies to a predetermined dimensional selection criterion involving the final outline of the ophthalmic lens.

A photochromic ophthalmic lens may comprise a main body comprising an optical zone and a peripheral zone disposed adjacent the optical zone, wherein one or more of the optical zone and the peripheral zone comprises a photochromic dye, wherein the ophthalmic lens has a thickness profile that is configured based on cosmetic appearance associated with a target level of transmission (% T), and wherein at least a portion of the thickness profile is the same across two or more stock keeping units (SKU), each of the two or more SKU having a different target prescription.
