  • Publication number: 20230363890
    Abstract: An intraocular lens, instrument for insertion thereof, assembly of lens and instrument, and method for manufacture of such a lens. The lens includes an optical element of a flexible optical material and provided with a substantially circular periphery; and at least one haptic element provided with a haptic form-locking element. The optical element and the at least one haptic element with the haptic form-locking element are mutually connected by connection of the haptic element to the optical material.

  • Patent number: 10031347
    Abstract: An ophthalmic multifocal lens to be worn on or in a human eye. The lens has an optical portion with anterior and posterior surfaces and a circumferential peripheral boundary. The optical portion has far vision zones having a first refractive power and near vision zones having an add power. The far visions zones and near vision zones include ring segments having one of the refractive powers each radially bounding a more central zone of another one of the refractive powers. The ring segments include ring segments bordering on the peripheral boundary and alternating in circumferential sense along the full circumference of the peripheral boundary.

  • Patent number: 9880400
    Abstract: An ophthalmic lens to be worn on or in a human eye for refractive correction of astigmatism. The lens has an anterior surface and a posterior surface shaped such that at least a zone of the lens said lens has a first dioptric power over a first main meridian, a second dioptric power different from the first dioptric power over a second main meridian intersecting the first meridian, and a dioptric power between the first dioptric power and said second dioptric power over each meridian between the first and second main meridians, the optical power continuously varying from meridian to meridian. The main meridians and at least one meridian between the main meridians each have a different Coddington shape factor and a different asphericity that is related to the Coddington shape factor of the respective meridian in accordance with a relationship providing aberration neutral refraction for the respective meridian.
