Abstract: Simulating an optical system by calculating wavefronts. The method includes: setting up at least one wavefront transfer function for the optical system, wherein the wavefront transfer function is designed to assign a respective associated emergent wavefront to wavefronts entering into the optical system, taking into account imaging errors with an order greater than the order of defocus; and evaluating the at least one wavefront transfer function for at least one wavefront entering into the optical system.

Abstract: Method for determining a surface model for calculating a surface of an ophthalmic lens from a set of order parameters for the lens or from variables depending on the order parameters. The method includes providing a training data set having order parameter sets; providing a target value of a property of the lens for each of the order parameter sets; providing a surface model with parameters; and determining optimized values for the parameters using the provided target values by optimizing the values for the parameters by minimizing/maximizing a target function for the parameters. The target function for the parameters for each of the order parameter sets has a term which assumes a minimum/maximum when the provided target value coincides with the value of the same property of a lens which is calculatable with the surface model for given values of the parameters for the corresponding order parameter set.

Abstract: System for order-receipt processing of an eyeglass lens, including: a receiver configured to receive order data of eyeglass lens, to store a catalog of eyeglass lens classes, which each are defined by a fixed number of predetermined and freely selectable order parameters and differ from each other in the number of freely selectable order parameters, and to classify the order data on the basis of the catalog of eyeglass lens classes, a processor configured to process the order data, to store only the highest eyeglass lens classes of the catalog of eyeglass lens classes, to select one of the highest eyeglass lens classes, to match the order data to the selected highest eyeglass lens class, to generate a respective digital reproduction of the eyeglass lens based on a calculation model and the adapted order data, and a communication device connecting the receiver and the processor.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for determining biometric data of an eye and a corresponding method for manufacturing spectacle lenses taking into account the biometric data determined. The method includes: providing individual standard data of a user, the standard data including prescription data including a distance prescription and/or a near prescription of at least one eye of a user; and calculating individual additional data including at least one individual biometric parameter of the at least one eye of the user based on the individual standard data and using a statistical model describing a relation between the standard data and the additional data, wherein the statistical model has been derived using statistical analysis of a training data set with a plurality of reference data sets, each of the reference data sets including standard data and additional data associated with the standard data.
