Publication number: 20250291204Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to lenses, devices, methods and/or systems for addressing refractive error. Certain embodiments are directed to changing or controlling the wavefront of the light entering a human eye. The lenses, devices, methods and/or systems can be used for correcting, addressing, mitigating or treating refractive errors and provide excellent vision at distances encompassing far to near without significant ghosting. The refractive error may for example arise from myopia, hyperopia, or presbyopia with or without astigmatism. Certain disclosed embodiments of lenses, devices and/or methods include embodiments that address foveal and/or peripheral vision. Exemplary of lenses in the fields of certain embodiments include contact lenses, corneal onlays, corneal inlays, and lenses for intraocular devices both anterior and posterior chamber, accommodating intraocular lenses, electro-active spectacle lenses and/or refractive surgery.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 10, 2025Publication date: September 18, 2025Inventors: Ravi Chandra Bakaraju, Klaus Ehrmann, Arthur Ho, Brien Anthony Holden

Publication number: 20250264735Abstract: A contact lens and a method for treating an eye with myopia is described. The contact lens includes an inner optic zone and an outer optic zone. The outer optic zone includes at least a portion with a first power, selected to correct distance vision. The inner optic zone has a relatively more positive power (and add power). In some embodiments the add power is substantially constant across the inner optic zone. In other embodiments the add power is variable across the inner optic zone. While in some embodiments the inner optic zone has a power designed to substantially eliminate lag of accommodation in the eye with myopia, in other embodiments, the add power may be higher.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2025Publication date: August 21, 2025Inventors: Brien Anthony Holden, Gregor Schmid, Padmaja Rajagopal Sankaridurg, Arthur Ho, Aldo Abraham Martinez Magos, Percy Fabian Lazon, Earl Leo Smith, III

Publication number: 20240393620Abstract: An ophthalmic lens element includes an upper distance viewing zone and a lower near viewing zone. The upper distance viewing zone includes a central region with a first refractive power for clear distance vision and peripheral regions that are relatively positive in power compared to the first refractive power. The lower near viewing zone has a central region that is relatively positive in power compared to the first refractive power to account for accommodative lag. The powers of the peripheral regions of the lower near viewing zone are one of: i) equal to the power of the central region of the lower near viewing zone, ii) relatively positive in comparison to the power of the central region of the lower near viewing zone.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2024Publication date: November 28, 2024Inventors: Padmaja Rajagopal Sankaridurg, Cathleen Fedtke, Leslie Alan Donovan, Earl Leo Smith, III, Arthur Ho, Brien Anthony Holden
