The invention relates to the field of management of an active lens and more particularly to a management system comprising an active lens (1), a first sensor (2) arranged to measure data relating to an incident light on the active lens, a control unit (4) designed for controlling the active lens according to data measured by the first sensor, wherein the management system further comprises a second sensor (3) arranged to measure data relating to a light transmitted from the incident light through the active lens, the control unit being further designed to adjust, according to said data measured by the second sensor, the control already performed according to said data measured by the first sensor. Thus the management system allows taking into account data relating to the light passing through the active lens as a feedback in order to finely control the active lens.

The present application discloses an apparatus for protecting a user's eye from blue light radiation, the apparatus includes a radiation detector configured to convert blue light from a light source into a photo voltage having a voltage value; a processor coupled to the radiation detector and configured to calculate a cumulative radiation intensity based on the voltage value cumulated over a time interval, and to compare the cumulative radiation intensity with a threshold value; and a controller coupled to the processor, configured to adjustably control blocking of at least a portion of blue light from the user's eye when the cumulative radiation intensity exceeds the threshold value.

The invention is based on a sun protection device, in particular sunglasses, with at least one optical sun protection filter comprising at least one liquid-crystal cell, and with at least one sensor unit, which is configured for capturing a solar irradiation. It is proposed that at least one sensor cover, which covers a sensor surface of the at least one sensor unit at least partly and which is, at least partly, at least substantially opaque with respect to an irradiation of a visible light spectrum.

The present invention relates to an electrochromic composition comprising at least one reducing compound, at least one oxidizing compound which is selected from specific viologen derivatives, and at least one dye. Said composition can be used as a variable transmittance medium for the manufacture of an optical article, such as an ophthalmic lens.

A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for modulating optics in a display are provided. An apparatus forms a plurality of zone plates in a liquid crystal using electric fields. Each zone plate has a center, and the centers are aligned along a first axis of the display. The apparatus moves the plurality of zone plates in a first direction along a second axis of the display different from the first axis of the display, while maintaining alignment of the centers of the plurality of zone plates along the first axis. Such movement is provided through repositioning of electric fields through the liquid crystal.

An optical device, to be used by a user driving a vehicle, the optical device including a controllable variable-tint lens and a controller, where the controller is configured to switch the optical device between at least two different modes, at least one mode being a driving mode and when the optical device is in the driving mode, a control parameter of the lens meets at least one driving criterion.

A laminated structure including: an electrically conductive layer; an underlying layer including a first resin and inorganic particles; a support including a second resin; and a resin layer including a third resin that is at least one selected from the group consisting of a resin of same kind as the second resin and a resin having a softening temperature equal to or lower than a softening temperature of the second resin, the electrically conductive layer, the underlying layer, the support, and the resin layer being disposed in this order.

The invention relates to the field of management systems and methods of an active device and more particularly, with said active device being an active ophthalmic lens, to a management system and method which allow a total or sufficient protection by taking into account the luminous environment of the wearer while avoiding some effects relative to permanent light filtering. According to a particular embodiment of the invention, there is also provided a monitoring of the wearer's health via active, regulated and continuous control of the active device, this control being performed for instance by a health professional via a remote monitoring system.

The invention relates to an ophthalmic device (1) satisfying a prescription for at least one power correction for a wearer, to a method for manufacturing it and to a use of a semi-finished hybrid ophthalmic lens.

The device comprises at least one electro-active cell (3) which comprises a rear shell (4) and a front shell (5) defining for the device a backside surface and an opposite front surface, the shells (4 and 5) being provided with transparent electrodes and delimiting a sealed cavity.

According to the invention, the rear shell (4) derives from a semi-finished hybrid ophthalmic lens comprising: a front mineral part having a first mineral face proximal to the front shell (5) and a second mineral face opposite to the first mineral face, and a rear plastic part attached to the front mineral part, the rear plastic part having a front plastic face bonded to said second mineral face and an unsurfaced rear plastic face which defines said backside surface and is configured to impart said prescription to the ophthalmic device, after surfacing said semi-finished hybrid ophthalmic lens.

This invention describes Ophthalmic Devices with media inserts that have nanostructured Metasurface elements upon or within them. In some embodiments passive ophthalmic devices of various kinds may be formed. Methods and devices for active ophthalmic devices based on Metasurface structures may also be formed.
