  • Publication number: 20210279939
    Abstract: Systems and methods for evaluating ND are described herein. An example method can include constructing a non-sequential (NSC) ray-tracing model of an eye with an ophthalmic lens, and modelling a light source and a detector. The detector can be configured to mimic a retina of the eye. The method can also include computing irradiance data using the light source, the NSC ray-tracing model, and the detector. Irradiance data can be computed for each of a plurality of pupil sizes. The method can further include evaluating ND by analyzing the respective irradiance data for each of the pupil sizes. Also described herein are methods for designing an ophthalmic lens edge that reduces the incidence of ND for a given ophthalmic lens by adjusting the edge thickness and/or the scatter.

  • Publication number: 20210236268
    Abstract: Intraocular lenses for reducing the risk of posterior capsule opacification (PCO) are described herein. PCO can be reduced with an IOL design that increases the pressure at the posterior capsular bend, for example, by including a sharper edge design, an enlarged optical zone, and/or an increased vault height. An example ophthalmic lens can include an optic (200) including an anterior surface (202) defining an anterior side of the optic, a posterior surface (204) defining a posterior side of the optic, and an edge (210) arranged between the anterior and posterior surfaces. The edge and the posterior surface can form an angle, where the angle is less than about 90 degrees. Additionally, the ophthalmic lens can have an increased vault height. At least one of the angle or the increased vault height be configured to increase pressure on a capsular bend in a subject's eye.
