  • Patent number: 11129707
    Abstract: Disclosed is an intraocular lens (IOL) including an anterior surface, a posterior surface and an optical axis. At least one of the anterior or posterior surfaces has a diffractive profile formed thereon. The diffractive profile has diffractive focal points for far vision, intermediate vision, and near vision. The diffractive profile corresponds to a superposition of a first partial diffractive profile and a second partial diffractive profile, the first partial diffractive profile has a focal point of order +n that coincides with the diffractive focal point for intermediate vision or with the diffractive focal point for near vision, the second partial diffractive profile has a focal point of order +n that coincides with the diffractive focal point for far vision and a focal point of higher order than +n that coincides with the diffractive focal point for near vision.

  • Patent number: 8636796
    Abstract: An intraocular lens (1) including an anterior surface (4) and a posterior surface (5) and having a substantially antero-posterior optical axis (6). In this lens, one of these anterior and posterior surfaces includes a first diffractive profile (9) forming at least one first diffractive focal point (11) of order +1 on said optical axis, and a second diffractive profile (10) forming a second diffractive focal point (12) of order +1 on said optical axis which is distinct from the first diffractive focal point of order +1. At least one portion of said second diffractive profile is superposed to at least one portion of the first diffractive profile.

  • Publication number: 20100094604
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for modelling an intraocular lens, wherein the shape of at least one surface of the intraocular lens and/or the interior of the intraocular lens with respect to their refraction effect are configured in such a way that with a first orientation within a human eye the intraocular lens at least partially corrects a first visual defect of said human eye and with a second orientation within a human eye the intraocular lens at least partially corrects a second visual defect of said human eye. Further the invention relates to an intraocular lens.
