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.

Provided herein are embodiments of systems and methods for imparting a pattern or representation to a device using interference pattern ablation.

Implantable corneal and intraocular implants such as a mask are provided. The mask can improve the vision of a patient, such as by being configured to increase the depth of focus of an eye of a patient. The mask can include an aperture configured to transmit along an optical axis substantially all visible incident light. The mask can further include a transition portion that surrounds at least a portion of the aperture. This portion can be configured to switch from one level of opacity to another level of opacity through the use of a controllably variable absorbance feature such as a switchable photochromic chromophore within a polymer matrix.

A system to inspect Dry Cosmetic contact lenses for defects such as imperfect structures, improper pattern prints, print smears, wrong colour, embedded foreign material or contaminants, wherein the said lens is printed with multilayers of ink on the anterior surface using at least one colourant and a binding polymer comprising: a) a Top camera to capture an image of the cosmetic lens; b) a Top illumination designed using IR wavelength LEDs positioned at an acute angle to the vertical axis and integrated with a lens system to produce a parallel and collimated illumination field; c) a bottom illumination designed using IR wavelength LEDs to illuminate the lens posterior; d) an optically transparent glass plate to accurately locate the lens at a predetermined position and also to diffuse the illumination; e) a contact lens under inspection placed on the transparent glass plate with its anterior surface facing the Camera and Top illumination; f) the Top and Bottom illumination designed using segmented LEDs arrangement, to provide programmable triggering of LED segments for intensity and trigger duration, dynamically.

Provided is a colored contact lens having: a lens; and a colored region formed in the lens, at least a part of the colored region is arranged at a position overlapping an iris of a wearer when the colored contact lens is worn, and the colored region has infrared transparency.

A reversible eye enhancement contact lens comprises a main body comprising a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, the main body having a diameter, a base curve, a peripheral thickness, and a center thickness, wherein, one or more of the diameter, the base curve, the peripheral thickness, or the center thickness are configured such that a dSag is less than 1.3% when comparing a first orientation of the main body with at least a portion of the first surface abutting an eye of a wearer and a second orientation of the main body with at least a portion of the second surface abutting the eye of the wearer; the main body further comprising a first region corresponding to the scleral region of an eye; a second region corresponding to the limbal region of an eye; a third region corresponding to an iris region of an eye; wherein colorants are incorporated into the first region, the second region, the third region, or combinations thereof and configured to create a cosmetic design in the first orientation that is different than the cosmetic design in the second orientation. The cosmetic designs in the first and second orientations may differ in colorant, color, limbal design graphics, inner effect design graphics, outer effect design graphics, barrier layers, clear coat base layers, or combinations thereof. The colorants may comprise metal oxide pigments, coated metal oxide pigments, organic dyes, interference pigments, and combinations thereof.

An ophthalmic lens, including: an optical portion having: a near portion with a near dioptric power for viewing near distance; and a distance portion with a distance dioptric for viewing a distance further than the near distance; with the near portion or the distance portion being centrally disposed, wherein a portion that is not centrally disposed is annularly disposed at an outer edge of the near portion or the distance portion, the near portion or the distance portion centrally disposed in the optical portion having a portion A in which power is intensified and then weakened when viewed in X direction from a center to a periphery, and having a portion A′ in which power is intensified and then weakened when viewed in X′ direction from the center to the periphery, which is an opposite direction to the X direction, and also included is a related technique thereof.

Described herein is a colored hydrogel contact lens, comprising: a hydrogel material; at least one cosmetic colored film; wherein the cosmetic colored film is made of a thermal plastic material or thermal setting material and is surrounded by the hydrogel material, wherein the colored hydrogel contact lens is capable of absorbing from about 10% to about 75% by weight of water when being fully hydrated, wherein the contact lens has an anterior surface and an opposite posterior surface and a circumferential edge where the anterior and posterior surfaces are tapered off, wherein the contact lens comprises a central optical zone, a peripheral zone surrounding the central optical zone, and an edge zone surrounding the peripheral zone.

Provided is a colored contact lens having: a lens; and a colored region formed in the lens, at least a part of the colored region is arranged at a position overlapping an iris of a wearer when the colored contact lens is worn, and the colored region has infrared transparency.

A reversible eye enhancement contact lens comprises a main body comprising a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface, the main body having a diameter, a base curve, a peripheral thickness, and a center thickness, wherein, one or more of the diameter, the base curve, the peripheral thickness, or the center thickness are configured such that a dSag is less than 1.3% when comparing a first orientation of the main body with at least a portion of the first surface abutting an eye of a wearer and a second orientation of the main body with at least a portion of the second surface abutting the eye of the wearer; the main body further comprising a first region corresponding to the scleral region of an eye; a second region corresponding to the limbal region of an eye; a third region corresponding to an iris region of an eye; wherein colorants are incorporated into the first region, the second region, the third region, or combinations thereof and configured to create a cosmetic design in the first orientation that is different than the cosmetic design in the second orientation.
