Abstract

Lenses are designed using wavefront measurements amenable to correction factors for near and far vision as well as pupil size to slow or stop myopia progression.

Claims (9)

1. A method of designing contact lenses, the method comprising the steps of:

a) acquiring ocular wavefront data from one or more individuals;

b) converting the acquired ocular wavefront data to a refractive power map;

c) generating a lens power profile that includes correction factors for near and far vision based on the acquired ocular wavefront data and measured pupil size the lens design power profile is calculated by averaging all meridians to a rotationally symmetric form,

d) fabricating contact lenses from the lens power profile.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein the wavefront data is acquired from a total population.

3. The method of claim 1 wherein the wavefront data is acquired from a sub-population.

4. The method of claim 1 wherein the wavefront data is acquired from an individual.

5. The method of claim 1 wherein the wavefront data is an average of multiple wavefront files.
