  • Publication number: 20240008973
    Abstract: A lens configured for implantation into an eye of a human can include an optic including transparent material. The optic can have an anterior surface and a posterior surface. Each of the anterior surface and the posterior surface can have a surface vertex. The optic can have an optical axis through the surface vertices. The lens can also include at least one haptic disposed with respect to the optic to affix the optic in the eye when implanted therein. The anterior and posterior surfaces can include aspheric surfaces. The posterior surface can have an aspheric shape that comprises a biconic offset by perturbations comprising an aspheric higher order function of radial distance from the optical axis. The posterior surface can have an absolute value of ratio Rx/Ry between 0 and 100 and an absolute value of ratio kx/ky between 0 and 100.

  • Publication number: 20200214830
    Abstract: Methods of vision correction that include implanting a first lens and a second lens of a lens pair. The methods include implanting the first lens into a first eye of the subject, the first lens configured with positive extended depth of field, and implanting the second lens into a second eye of the subject, the second lens configured with negative extended depth of field, where the second eye is different than the first eye.

  • Publication number: 20200085567
    Abstract: A lens configured for implantation into an eye of a human can include an optic including transparent material. The optic can have an anterior surface and a posterior surface. The anterior surface can be convex and the posterior surface can be concave such that the optic is meniscus shaped. Each of the convex anterior surface and the concave posterior surface can have a surface vertex. The optic can have an optical axis through the surface vertices and a thickness along the optical axis that is between about 100-700 micrometers. The lens can also include haptic portions disposed about the optic to affix the optic in the eye when implanted therein. The anterior and posterior surfaces can include aspheric surfaces.
