Systems and methods for creating ophthalmic lens creation instructions are disclosed. The method includes obtaining an ophthalmic prescription and preparing lens creation instructions based on the ophthalmic prescription including determining a baseline lens design. The lens creation instructions are augmented to reduce myopia. The augmented lens creation instructions are created by determining a central region and a peripheral region in the baseline lens, computing a distortion pattern of bumps randomly located in the peripheral region of the lens such that the bumps have random sizes and random strengths, wherein the location, size and strength are created using probability distribution functions, and then computing a final back surface of the lens including incorporating the distortion pattern of bumps into the baseline lens. A lens created by this method is described herein. The method may be implemented on a computing device.

Systems and methods for visual acuity calculation including consideration of a combination of ocular aberrations and lens aberrations are disclosed. One method includes obtaining ocular aberration data and introducing a correction in the defocus term of the ocular aberration data to account for longitudinal chromatic aberration.

Configuring ophthalmic lenses that reduce oblique aberrations based on a wearer's accommodative demand values is disclosed. The accommodative demand values include A_(rel−) and A_(rel+) depend on object vergence L. The accommodative demand values are considered to and ensure no or reduced eye strain to the wearer. An improved merit function Φ′ is calculated based on the accommodative demand values. In the calculation, accommodative term A is a smooth and continuous function of both the object distance L and the spherical component of the power error. This ensures the accommodative demand values are well below maximum relative accommodations available to the wearer to prevent eye fatigue. The calculation may also include a smooth and continuous thresholding function ƒ that optimizes the merit function. The calculation may also include evaluation of the power error associated with various object vergencies for every direction of sight.
