Abstract: An ophthalmic device includes a rigid insert and an enclosure enveloping the rigid insert. The enclosure includes a cornea contact formed on a concave side of the enclosure. The cornea contact has a ring-shape that protrudes from the concave side of the enclosure and is disposed under at least a portion of the rigid insert. The ring-shape of the cornea contact includes a plurality of discontinuous sections. The plurality of channels are disposed on the concave side of the enclosure and each extend through a corresponding one of the discontinuous sections of the cornea contact.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a system and method for remote image projection. The system may comprise a compact optical system to provide remote projections of images. The system may comprise an image correction subsystem, an image motion and positioning subsystem, an image relay and deflection subsystem, a source image, a warped image, a remotely projected image. The method may comprise processing the source image with a dewarping algorithm. The image correction subsystem may comprise a source image, a dewarping algorithm. When the system comprises an intermediate image plane, the warped image may be configured to project on the target projection surface upon arrival to the intermediate image plane. The image relay and deflection subsystem may comprise passive mechanical relay optics to refine the remotely projected image and direct the remotely projected image to the target projection surface.

Abstract: An ophthalmic device having posterior and anterior features are disclosed herein. An example ophthalmic device may include an enclosure having an insert disposed therein. The enclosure may include a cornea contact disposed on a posterior side and arranged to rest on a user's cornea outside of a central cornea area when the ophthalmic device is worn by a user. The enclosure further includes a channel formed in the posterior side, where the channel extends through the cornea contact from at least radially outside of the insert to an inner edge of the cornea contact.

Abstract: The invention provides methods for designing contact lenses and contact lenses designed according to the method, which lenses provide an improved method for presbyopia correction compared to conventional lenses and methods. It is a discovery of the invention that improved performance and reduced design time can be obtained by using lens pairs that act synergistically to provide the lens wearer with good binocularity and consistent performance in near, intermediate and distance vision.

Abstract: Modified MZ (Mach-Zender) interferometers preferably are utilized to analyze the transmitted, aspherical wavefront of an ophthalmic lens by mounting the lens in a cuvette having a rotatable carousel that can hold multiple lenses. Fresh, temperature controlled, saline solution is circulated about the lenses, and the cuvette is positioned in a vertical test arm of the interferometer configuration. Reverse raytracing preferably is utilized to remove aberrations induced into the wavefront as it is imaged from immediately behind the lens to the detector of the interferometer.

Abstract: The invention provides contact lenses that substantially block either or both UV and blue light from entering the lens wearer's pupil by providing multiple concentric areas of certain materials that decrease or substantially eliminate the UV and blue light transmission. The lenses of the invention accomplish the light blocking without degrading the lens wearer's vision.

Abstract: The invention provides lenses that are designed by taking into account one or more of pupil size, field, and decentration.

Abstract: The invention provides multifocal lenses for correction of presbyopia. Each of the lenses of the invention provide both distance and near vision correction by providing both a first multifocal region, a monofocal region, and a second multifocal region within the same lens.
