Embodiments disclosed herein include eyewear that has one or more laminates applied to a lens body. In some embodiments, the lens body is constructed from a substantially rigid material having a curved shape. The lens body can have any desired curvature, including, for example, cylindrical, spherical or toroidal. A laminate can include a substantially flexible substrate and one or more functional layers or coatings applied to the substrate. In addition, one or more functional layers or coatings can be applied directly to the lens body. In certain embodiments, a bonding layer bonds a laminate to a convex and/or concave surface of the lens body. Examples of functional layers or coatings that can be applied to a laminate include anti-reflection coatings, interference stacks, hard coatings, flash mirrors, anti-static coatings, anti-fog coatings, other functional layers, or a combination of functional layers.

Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and processes for constructing a contact lens. In one embodiment, a contact lens assembly is provided, comprising: a curved polymer polarizer with an aperture; a lenslet disposed inside the aperture wherein the lenslet enables imaging near objects; and a filter attached to the lenslet. In further embodiments, a method for fabricating a flexible contact lens is provided, comprising: fabricating an element having an extrusion; providing a front concave mold, wherein the front mold has an intrusion to accommodate the extrusion of the optical element; affixing the extrusion of the optical element to the intrusion of the front mold; attaching a back convex mold to the front concave mold, thereby forming a mold cavity; and filling the mold cavity with a pre-polymerized liquid, whereby upon polymerization, the pre-polymerized liquid forms the flexible contact lens and the optical element is partially encapsulated within the lens.

An eyewear includes an eyewear frame; and two lenses held in place via the eyewear frame, each of the two lenses having a top portion composed of a clear polycarbonate; and a bottom portion integral with the top portion and composed of an orange polycarbonate; the bottom portion absorbs blue light and the top portion allows all light through.

An optical filter (1) in which, in a transmission spectrum of the optical filter, when: a minimum value of transmissivity for a wavelength range of from 400 nm to 450 nm, inclusive, is defined as first minimum value MIN1; a minimum value of transmissivity for a wavelength range of from 525 nm to 595 nm, inclusive, is defined as second minimum value MIN2; a maximum value of transmissivity for a wavelength range of from 450 nm to 525 nm, inclusive, is defined as first maximum value MAX1; and a maximum value of transmissivity for a wavelength range of from 595 nm to 600 nm, inclusive, is defined as second maximum value MAX2, first minimum value MAX1 and second minimum value MIN1 are each at most ½ a smaller one of first maximum value MAX1 and second maximum value MAX2.

Active optical filter adapted for a spectacle lens, the active optical filter being configured so as to filter light radiations over at least one predetermined range of wavelengths, wherein the full width at half maximum of the filtering function of the optical filter is smaller than or equal to 100 nm.

The embodiments disclosed herein relate to a transparent material to provide protection to a person's eyes from harmful wavelengths of the light spectrum, overall visual comfort, or improved vision such as color enhancement, target recognition and other functions, while selectively transmitting more of certain wavelengths of the light spectrum that have a therapeutic benefit such as healing or general mood modifier. The transparent material may be a lens or a shield which is disposed in front of the wearer's eyes.

An ophthalmic lens configured to treat color vision deficiency is presented herein. The lens includes a tinted region containing either or both of a first dye that is configured to absorb at least 50% of incident light in a spectral band between 480 nanometers to 500 nanometers and a second dye that is configured to absorb at least 50% of incident light in a spectral band between 550 nanometers to 580 nanometers. A method of manufacturing such a lens and a process of forming set of eyeglasses by an additive manufacturing process is also presented.

A method for displaying virtual content to a user, the method includes determining an accommodation of the user's eyes. The method also includes delivering, through a first waveguide of a stack of waveguides, light rays having a first wavefront curvature based at least in part on the determined accommodation, wherein the first wavefront curvature corresponds to a focal distance of the determined accommodation. The method further includes delivering, through a second waveguide of the stack of waveguides, light rays having a second wavefront curvature, the second wavefront curvature associated with a predetermined margin of the focal distance of the determined accommodation.

Provided herein is an improved polarized eyewear with selective light wavelength blocking and a method of making such polarized eyewear.

An ophthalmic tinted glass (10) comprises a substrate-forming base eyeglass (1), a first layered structure (2) which covers a convex face (Cx) of the base eyeglass, and optionally a second layered structure (3) which covers a concave face (Cc) of the base eyeglass. The first layered structure has a function of selective reflection increase, and the second layered structure is antireflective. Such ophthalmic tinted glass produces solar protection while having a mean transmittance value in a wavelength range from 460 nm to 10 nm, or 465 nm to 495 nm, which is high enough for avoiding biological, hormonal and behavioural disorders for a wearer of the tinted glass.
