The invention relates to a method for decorating an ophthalmic article. The method contains a step of providing an ophthalmic article having a substrate with a first outer surface intended to be oriented towards the field of view of a user. The first outer surface has at least one decoration zone outside the central vision zone of the ophthalmic article and has topographic structures of at least one dimension of length greater than or equal to 1 mm for forming a decorative pattern. The method further contains a step of depositing thin layers on the first outer surface to form an interferometric mirror on top of the first outer surface. The thin layers have a refractive index different from the refractive index of the substrate.

The detailed characteristics of the red fluorescence of the human lens—that occurs at the seventh decade of life—is recognized as an example of evolutionary photobiomodulation for repair of the retina, and then used as a paradigm for extending current parametric values for reproducible photobiomodulation. The new photobiomodulation parameters involve relative intensities for wavelength bands within the range of 600 nm to 900 nm.
