  • Patent number: 11022818
    Abstract: Ophthalmic devices including dynamic visual field modulation are disclosed herein. An example ophthalmic device may include a first liquid crystal cell including a first dichroic dye, a second liquid crystal cell including a second dichroic dye, wherein the first and second liquid crystal cells are in optical series so that incident light on the ophthalmic device passes through both the first and second liquid crystal cells, a photodetector positioned within the ophthalmic device to detect the incident light and coupled to output a data signal indicative of a property of the incident light, and control electronics coupled to receive the data signal from the photodetector in response to the incident light, and further coupled to independently and dynamically control the first and second liquid crystal cells based at least in part on the data signal.
