Abstract: A spectacle lens having an anterior surface curvature, the anterior surface having a spherically shaped central vision surface area from 12 to 16 diopters and a peripheral, aspherical surface area surrounding the center vision spherical area, the aspherical surface area formed with a uniform diopter gradient varying from the central vision surface area edge to the outer circumference of the lens. The aspherical diopter rate of change, approximately one-third diopter per millimeter which is reduced from the spherical area toward the outer lens circumference, improves the peripheral vision of a person having aphakia when looking through the central vision portion, while eliminating the pin cushion effect found in conventional lenses which result from overpowering in the outer areas of the lens.
