  • Patent number: 7930151
    Abstract: A method of calculating an individual progressive lens creates one or more basic designs for lenses based on theoretical specifications, and then creates starting designs from these basic designs. Individual progressive lenses are calculated from the starting designs corresponding to the individual data from wearing test subjects. Valid starting designs are then created for production. The individual lenses are calculated from the starting designs according to individual customer data.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6964478
    Abstract: A spectacle lens is provided with a region (distance portion) designed for viewing at greater distances and, in particular, “to infinity”, a region (near portion) designed for viewing at short distances and, in particular, “reading distances”, and a progression zone disposed between the distance portion and the near portion, in which the power of the spectacle lens increases from the value in the distance reference point located in the distance portion to the value at the near reference point located in the near portion along a line (principal meridian) curving towards the nose. The invention is marked by specific conditions for the astigmatic deviation and/or the mean “as worn” power being observed.

  • Patent number: 6669337
    Abstract: Described is a spectacle lens comprising a region (distance portion) designed for viewing at large distances and in particular “to infinity”, a region (near portion) designed for viewing at short distances and in particular “reading distances”, and a progressive zone disposed between the distance portion and the near portion, in which the power of the spectacle lens increases from a value at a distance reference point located in the distance portion to a value at the near reference point located in the near portion along a curve (principal line) veering towards the nose. The invention is distinct in that the astigmatic deviation, i.e.
