A spectacle lens, which is manufactured by additive manufacturing, includes interspersing first volume elements and second volume elements. The first and second volume elements are arranged on the grid points of a geometric grid to form a first sub-grid and a second sub-grid, respectively. The first sub-grid forms the first part of the spectacle lens having a dioptric effect for vision for a first object distance and the second sub-grid forms the second part of the spectacle lens having a dioptric effect for vision for a second object distance, which differs from the first object distance.

An optical article may include a frame, a first active lens arrangement coupled to the frame, and a second active lens arrangement coupled to the frame. The first active lens arrangement and the second active lens arrangement may be lined up abreast with respect to each other. Further, the optical article may include a time-based optical power adjustment mechanism coupled to the first active lens arrangement and the second active lens arrangement. The time-based optical power adjustment mechanism may be configured to vary the optical power of the first active lens arrangement and the second active lens arrangement in accordance with a predetermined adjustment.

The present disclosure relates to means of managing eye-length disorders, like myopia. The invention includes an apparatus and methods for the prescription, selection, supply and fitting of sets, stocks, or kits of pairs of myopia management spectacles, or spectacle fronts, attachable impermanent auxiliary optical films or mini optical elements used in conjunction with standard single vision spectacles, wherein the apparatus and methods are configured to provide substantially toric, or astigmatic, or asymmetric, directional optical cues to decelerate, ameliorate, control, inhibit, or reduce the rate of myopia progression over time, wherein the method is a prescribed care regimen providing temporal and spatial variation to the directional optical cues or stop signals.
