  • Publication number: 20200118252
    Abstract: Systems and methods for compensating for at least one optical aberration in a vision system of a viewer viewing a display. Image data for an image to be displayed is received, at least one parameter related to at least one optical aberration in the vision system of a viewer is received and an aberration compensated image to be displayed is computed based on the at least one received parameter related to the vision system of a viewer and on at least one characteristic of the light field element. The aberration compensated image is displayed on the display medium, such that when a viewer whose vision system has the at least one optical aberration views the aberration compensated image displayed on the display medium through a light field element, the aberration compensated image appears to the viewer with the at least one aberration reduced or eliminated.

  • Patent number: 6241355
    Abstract: A method of computer-aided contact lens design and fabrication uses spline-based mathematical surfaces without restrictions of rotational symmetry. The spline encompasses any piecewise function with any associated constraints of smoothness or continuity. The method comprises some or all of the following steps: data acquisition, three-dimensional mathematical surface model construction, posterior surface description, ray tracing for anterior surface, and peripheral edge system (PES) design. The result is a mathematical or algorithmic description of a contact lens. Based on the more powerful mathematical representation of splines, these contact lenses can have posterior surfaces that provide a good fit to corneas having complicated shapes. This enables the design and fabrication of lenses (including soft lenses) with good optics for irregularly shaped corneas.
