Publication number: 20180136487Abstract: 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: ApplicationFiled: July 31, 2017Publication date: May 17, 2018Inventors: Ravi Chandra Bakaraju, Klaus Ehrmann, Arthur Ho, Brien Anthony Holden

Publication number: 20170336653Abstract: A corrective lens system for the eyes of an individual includes first and second pairs of lenses of first and second prescriptions, respectively. In certain embodiments, the first pair of lenses includes a first lens for the left eye and a first lens for the right eye, and the second pair of lenses includes a second lens for the left eye and a second lens for the right eye. The first and second pairs of lenses may be configured in package having a plurality of compartments with individual lenses disposed in individual compartments. A set of instructions may be provided for wearing the first pair of lenses for a first time period and the second pair of lenses for a second time period. The first prescription is different from the second prescription. The lenses may inhibit the progression of myopia in the individual. Methods of arranging, prescribing, and using the lens system are described.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2015Publication date: November 23, 2017Applicant: Brien Holden Vision InstituteInventor: Ravi Chandra Bakaraju

Publication number: 20170322110Abstract: 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: ApplicationFiled: November 11, 2015Publication date: November 9, 2017Applicant: Brien Holden Vision InstituteInventors: Fabian Conrad, Ravi Chandra Bakaraju, Klaus Ehrmann
