A system and method for coating a lens (10) using a plurality of inkjet print bars (46) arranged in-line, includes generating, using at least one processor (54, 110) in communication with the plurality of inkjet print bars (46), at least one graphical user interface configured to facilitate the automation of the creation or selection of an image to be printed on a lens (10); generating a plurality of image layers based on the lens (10) geometry, target product, and number of print bars (46); and controlling, using the at least one processor (54, 110), at least two of the plurality of inkjet print bars (46) to print the image on the lens (10), such that each of the at least two inkjet print bars (46) prints at least one image layer of the plurality of image layers.

Optical articles and methods of manufacturing the same are disclosed herein. In one aspect, the methods and optical articles formed include light-blocking compositions applied to optical substrates in accordance with the optical properties of the optical substrate. In another aspect, a method is disclosed in which the light-absorbing compositions are printed onto the optical substrate in the shape and size of the final lens that is to be formed from the optical substrate. In another aspect, the methods and optical articles utilize at least two different light-blocking compositions to achieve desired functionality of the optical article.

Provided is an inkjet printing method using a plurality of nozzles which are controlled to discharge discrete quantities of ink mapped to a specific control value, of which a control value and discrete quantities of ink are mapped, if the specific control value is inputted, the inkjet printing method including the steps of: inputting a control value mapped to specific discrete quantities of ink to the plurality of nozzles to measure discharge performance of the plurality of nozzles; classifying the plurality of nozzles into a plurality of nozzle groups based on the discharge performance measured on the plurality of nozzles; adjusting a mapped relation between the discrete quantities of ink and the control value for the classified nozzle groups; and performing inkjet printing based on a mapped relation between the discrete quantities of ink and the control value.

According to at least one aspect, a system configured to count cells in a vessel is provided. The system comprises an imaging system configured to image cells in the vessel and a controller coupled to the imaging system. The controller is configured to control the imaging system to capture a focused image of the cells and estimate a number of cells in the focused image. The controller is configured to control the imaging system to capture a focused image of the cells at least in part by controlling the imaging system to capture a plurality of images of the cells in a plurality of focal planes, determining an area of at least one cell in each of the plurality of images, and selecting one image from the plurality of images as the focused image using the area of the at least one cell in the plurality of images.

A sclera or contact lens with an image of an eye that is fenestrated, or uniformly speckled with many sub-millimeter sized transparent regions or holes, is disclosed. The micro fenestrated contact lens can be worn on a strabismic, or misaligned, eye so that its image is aligned with the wearer's dominant eye. The fenestrations allow the wearer to see through the opaque or translucent image printed on the contact lens, thus allowing binocular vision even though his or her strabismic eye is covered.

A window including a base substrate, which includes a transmission region and a bezel region in a plan view and includes a front surface and a rear surface that are opposite to each other in a thickness direction, a light-blocking layer, which is disposed on the rear surface of the base substrate and is overlapped with the bezel region, and a printing layer, which is disposed on the light-blocking layer and has a target surface, in which a barcode pattern is formed. The printing layer may have a chromatic color, and a width of the printing layer may be less than a width of the light-blocking layer.

A quantum dot composition, a preparation method therefor, and a cured film, a color filter and a display device that comprise the same are described. Specifically, a solventless quantum dot composition comprises quantum dots, which are surface-treated with two types of ligands. As a result, the quantum dot composition exhibits low viscosity, excellent optical properties, and high storage stability.

A colorized lens for eyewear is provided using nozzles emitting ink to form colors and images and the like in an image layer upon the lens. A viewing area is formed within the image to provide a view through a single color layer area or an area of no imaging ink, to eliminate images and lines thereof from the view of a wearer of the lens.

According to at least one aspect, a system configured to count cells in a vessel is provided. The system comprises an imaging system configured to image cells in the vessel and a controller coupled to the imaging system. The controller is configured to control the imaging system to capture a focused image of the cells and estimate a number of cells in the focused image. The controller is configured to control the imaging system to capture a focused image of the cells at least in part by controlling the imaging system to capture a plurality of images of the cells in a plurality of focal planes, determining an area of at least one cell in each of the plurality of images, and selecting one image from the plurality of images as the focused image using the area of the at least one cell in the plurality of images.
