Abstract: A lens for eyeglasses is provided with two or more optical zones on the lens body having different optical properties that enhance visualization of different scenes, including target objects within the scenes, that are associated with a specific recreational activity such as tennis, skiing, golf, hunting, or fishing. A first optical zone in an upper portion of the lens can be provided with pre-defined focus distance, transmission percentage, and/or transmission spectrum parameters for enhanced visualization of distant scenes associated with the specific recreational activity. A second optical zone in a lower or outer portion of the lens can be provided with different pre-defined focus distance, transmission percentage, and/or transmission spectrum parameters for enhanced visualization of close-in scenes associated with the specific recreational activity.

Abstract: A contact lens has at least one optical filter region that can be surrounded by a clear optical region. The one or more filter regions have a diameter such that an increasing percentage of visible light is transmitted to the pupil of the eye as lighting conditions change from high-intensity lighting environments to low-intensity lighting environments. The cooperation between the changing pupil and lens provides an automatic adjustment of light intensity perceived by the wearer in response to the changing light conditions. Different filtering characteristics are provided in the filter regions to enhance perception of light corresponding to light reflected by an object or background scene used in outdoor sporting and recreational activities, while attenuating other reflected light.
