An adjustable spectacle lens has a first lens element and a second lens element arranged one behind the other along an optical axis of the lens. The first and second lens element are configured to vary their combined optical properties when moved relative to each other in a direction transverse to the optical axis. The adjustable lens element is an adjustable progressive lens element. The first and second lens element are configured to vary at least one of a size and a power of the near, the distance, and the intermediate portion relative to each other, when the first lens element and the second lens element are moved relative to each other in the direction transverse to the optical axis. The first and second lens elements can be configured to conjointly provide a near, a distance and an intermediate portion that can be changed depending on the visual task.

A computer-implemented method of determining a base curve value representing a base curve for a front surface of a spectacle lens is disclosed. The method includes receiving individual prescription data and determining the base curve value for the front surface of the spectacle lens based on the prescription data. In particular, the base curve value is calculated from the received prescription data based on a functional relationship between one or more values included in the prescription data and the base curve value.

The present invention discloses a method for making an aspheric vision correction lens with controlled peripheral defocus. The present invention also discloses a vision correction lens worn outside the eye, an orthokeratology lens and an intraocular lens made according to the method. The present invention further discloses a diagnosis and treatment method that utilizes myopic peripheral defocus to control and retard myopia growth.

A contact lens and a method for treating an eye with myopia is described. The contact lens includes an inner optic zone and an outer optic zone. The outer optic zone includes at least a portion with a first power, selected to correct distance vision. The inner optic zone has a relatively more positive power (and add power). In some embodiments the add power is substantially constant across the inner optic zone. In other embodiments the add power is variable across the inner optic zone. While in some embodiments the inner optic zone has a power designed to substantially eliminate lag of accommodation in the eye with myopia, in other embodiments, the add power may be higher.

A pair of right and left spectacle lenses each includes: a distance vision region and a near vision region; and a progressive region in which a refractive power progressively changes between the distance vision region and the near vision region. In the pair of right and left spectacle lenses mounted in a spectacle frame, a height position of a distance eye point that is a reference point of the distance vision region is different between right and left, and a corridor length connecting the distance vision region and the near vision region is different between right and left.

Various embodiments disclose a quasi progressive lens including a first optical zone capable of providing distance vision, a second optical zone capable of providing near vision and a transition zone connecting the first and second optical zones. Physical dimensions (e.g., length and width) of the transition zone are adjusted to increase the size of the second optical zone in comparison to progressive lenses and to reduce residual cylinder power and aberrations along the convergence path in comparison to bifocal lenses.

A technology concerns a spectacle lens to suppress unnecessary convergence. In the spectacle lens, when an inner horizontal direction of the spectacle lens is a direction toward the nose of a user who wears the spectacle lens, and an outer horizontal direction of the spectacle lens is a direction toward an ear of the user, a shape of a base in prism is formed in a portion in which power continuously changes and through which a main line of sight, influenced by convergence of the user of the spectacle lens, passes such that at least a part of a base out prism, which may be generated in the portion, is cancelled.

A computer-implemented method for providing a lens shape for an ophthalmic lens is disclosed. Further, there is provided a method for angular smoothing of a surface determined by carrier lines radially outwards of a prescription zone bordered by a first boundary line. In addition, there is provided an ophthalmic lens, in particular, a spectacle lens. Moreover, a method for minimizing the difference in thickness between two ophthalmic lenses for the same spectacles is provided. A computer program product and a machine-readable storage medium are provided as well.

The local refractive power or the refractive power distribution of a spectacle lens is measured. A first image of a scene having a plurality of structure points and a left and/or a right spectacle lens of a frame front is captured with an image capturing device from a first capture position having an imaging beam path for structure points, which extends through the spectacle lens of the frame front. At least two further images of the scene are captured with the image capturing device from different capture positions, one of which can be identical with the first capture position, without the spectacle lenses of the spectacles or without the frame front containing the spectacle lenses having the structure points imaged in the first image, and the coordinates of the structure points in a coordinate system are calculated from the at least two further images of the scene by image analysis.
