Abstract: The visual perception of a lens wearer is not only along the gaze direction, but also has a non-zero transverse extension, which is called perceptual span. Perceptual span is skewed to extend further in the reading direction, i.e., the line portion to be read next relative to the line portion that was just read. A technique is provided that determines a pair of progressive ophthalmic lenses that take such perceptual span into account.

Abstract: A method for determining target optical functions for a pair of ophthalmic lenses is provided, the method comprising steps of: generating a first target optical function (OFT1) for a first lens of the pair based at least on data relating to a first eye, generating a second target optical function (OFT2) for a second lens of the pair based at least on data relating to the first eye. This method makes it possible to obtain optical functions having improved symmetry. Thus, when using the target optical functions in an optical optimization method, lenses with improved binocular properties can be obtained. The comfort of the wearer of the pair of lenses is thus improved.

Abstract: A process for determining a pair of personalized progressive ophthalmic lenses. and a computer program product associated to these processes. Right-handed persons and left-handed persons behave very differently when executing certain near vision tasks, such as writing on a sheet of paper. However, current lens designs do not take into account these behavior differences. The comfort of wearing a pair of ophthalmic lenses can be improved for the wearer for whom the lenses are intended by adapting his near vision according to his handedness.
