  • Publication number: 20160370603
    Abstract: Ophthalmic lenses for correcting refractive error of an eye are disclosed. Ophthalmic lenses include an inner optic portion configured to be disposed over the optical region of the cornea and having a central portion disposed between an anterior portion and a posterior portion. The inner optic portions configured to at least partially diverge from the shape of the cornea to provide at least one lenticular volume between a posterior surface of the inner optic portion and the cornea. The central portion may be characterized by a thickness from 50 ?m to 900 ?m and a modulus form 20 MPa to 1500 MPa.

  • Publication number: 20160334640
    Abstract: Bimodulus multifocal ophthalmic lenses for correcting presbyopia include an inner optic portion characterized by a rigidity greater than a rigidity of an outer peripheral portion. When applied to an eye, the ophthalmic lenses are configured to provide one or more lenticular volumes between the posterior surface of the lens and the cornea. The ophthalmic lenses are further characterized by features on a surface of the lens for improving multifocal visual acuity. The disclosure further relates to methods of correcting presbyopia using the ophthalmic lenses.

  • Patent number: 9423632
    Abstract: Ophthalmic lenses for correcting refractive error of an eye are disclosed. Ophthalmic lenses include a deformable inner portion and a deformable peripheral portion. When disposed over the optical region of an eye, the inner portion is configured so that engagement of the posterior surface against the eye deforms the posterior surface so that the posterior surface has a shape diverging form the refractive shape of the epithelium when viewing with the eye through the ophthalmic lens. The rigidity of the inner portion is greater than the rigidity of the peripheral portion and the ophthalmic lenses are configured to allow movement relative to the eye upon blinking of the eye and to be substantially centered on the optical region of the cornea following the blinking of the eye. Methods of correcting refractive errors of an eye such as astigmatism or spherical aberration using the ophthalmic lenses are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20160223835
    Abstract: Ophthalmic lenses for correcting refractive error of an eye are disclosed. Ophthalmic lenses include an inner optic portion having a scaffold between an anterior portion and a posterior portion. The scaffold is characterized by a substantially uniform thickness formed from a material characterized by a modulus that his higher than the modulus of the peripheral portion. Openings within the scaffold are filled with a low modulus material. When applied to an eye, the lenses are configured to provide one or more lenticular volumes between the posterior surface of the lens and the cornea. The disclosure further relates to methods of correcting refractive errors of an eye such as astigmatism or spherical aberration using the ophthalmic lenses.
