Patent number: 11320672Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to lenses, devices, methods and/or systems for addressing refractive error. Certain embodiments are directed to changing or controlling the wavefront of the light entering a human eye. The lenses, devices, methods and/or systems can be used for correcting, addressing, mitigating or treating refractive errors and provide excellent vision at distances encompassing far to near without significant ghosting. The refractive error may for example arise from myopia, hyperopia, or presbyopia with or without astigmatism. Certain disclosed embodiments of lenses, devices and/or methods include embodiments that address foveal and/or peripheral vision. Exemplary of lenses in the fields of certain embodiments include contact lenses, corneal onlays, corneal inlays, and lenses for intraocular devices both anterior and posterior chamber, accommodating intraocular lenses, electro-active spectacle lenses and/or refractive surgery.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2019Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Assignee: Brien Holden Vision Institute LimitedInventors: Ravi Chandra Bakaraju, Klaus Ehrmann, Arthur Ho, Brien Anthony Holden

Patent number: 11226497Abstract: The present disclosure is directed generally to a lens that provides a stop signal to a myopic eye, over a substantial portion of the spectacle lens that the viewer is using. The present disclosure is directed to devices, methods and/or systems of imposing a stop signal to eye growth, using a spectacle lens in conjunction with a micro lenslet array. The present disclosure is also directed to devices, methods and/or systems of modifying incoming light through spectacle lenses that utilizes chromatic cues to decelerate the rate of myopia progression. The present disclosure is directed to devices, methods and/or systems of imposing a stop signal to eye growth, using a spectacle lens in conjunction with a refractive optical element and/or diffractive optical element that offer conflicting or contradictory optical signals at a wavelength between 510 nm and 610 nm.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2017Date of Patent: January 18, 2022Assignee: BRIEN HOLDEN VISION INSTITUTE LIMITEDInventors: Ravi Chandra Bakaraju, Klaus Ehrmann, Cathleen Fedtke, Padmaja Sankaridurg, Arthur Ho

Publication number: 20210191157Abstract: Certain embodiments are directed to lenses, devices and/or methods. For example, a lens for an eye having an optical axis and an aberration profile along its optical axis, the aberration profile having a focal distance and including higher order aberrations having at least one of a primary spherical aberration component C(4,0) and a secondary spherical aberration component C(6,0). The aberration profile may provide, for a model eye with no aberrations and an on-axis length equal to the focal distance: (i) a peak, first retinal image quality (RIQ) within a through focus range that remains at or above a second RIQ over the through focus range that includes said focal distance, where the first RIQ is at least 0.35, the second RIQ is at least 0.1 and the through focus range is at least 1.8 Diopters; (ii) a RIQ of 0.3 with a through focus slope that improves in a direction of eye growth; and (iii) a RIQ of 0.3 with a through focus slope that degrades in a direction of eye growth.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2020Publication date: June 24, 2021Inventors: Ravi Chandra Bakaraju, Klaus Ehrmann, Arthur Ho

Patent number: 10670495Abstract: A method for assessing the similarity between a power profile of a manufactured optic device and a nominal power profile upon which the power profile of the manufactured optic device is based. The method comprises measuring the power profile of manufactured optic device, identifying a region of interest from the measured power profile of manufactured optic device, and applying an offset to the measured power profile to substantially minimize a statistical quantifier for quantifying the similarity between the nominal power profile and the offset measured power profile. The method further comprises comparing the offset and the statistical quantifier to predefined quality control metrics, determining whether the measured power profile meets the predefined quality control metrics based, at least in part on the comparison.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2019Date of Patent: June 2, 2020Assignee: Brien Holden Vision Institute LimitedInventors: Fabian Conrad, Ravi Chandra Bakaraju, Klaus Ehrmann
