20140253874 | LOW DISTORTION EYEWEAR LENS WITH LOW OPTICAL POWER - A lens for non-prescription eyewear includes: a first surface having a first surface shape; and a second surface opposite the first surface, the second surface having a second surface shape, wherein the first surface includes a point of maximum curvature and the shape of the first surface measured along a line on the first surface decreases by at least 1.5 diopters at a distance 15 mm in every direction from the point of maximum curvature. | 09-11-2014 |
20140218681 | STATISTICAL AUTOREFRACTOR - Methods for determining a prescription (Rx) for a person include providing aberrometric data characterizing wavefront errors of the person's eye, the aberrometric data being obtained using an wavefront sensor and comprising one or more coefficients characterizing the wavefront errors; determining a starting Rx for the person's eye based on the one or more coefficients and on predetermined information relating aberrometric data and subjective refraction data for a plurality of people's eyes; and reporting the starting Rx to an eye care professional. | 08-07-2014 |
20140078464 | PUPIL DEPENDENT WAVEFRONT REFRACTION - A method of determining an ophthalmic prescription (Rx) for a patient's eye, includes obtaining a wavefront measurement of the patient's eye; determining a first Rx for the patient's eye from the wavefront measurement, the first Rx corresponding to a maximum value of a merit function calculated from the wavefront measurement of the patient's eye for a first size of the pupil of the patient's eye; determining one or more additional Rx's of the patient's eye for one or more additional pupil sizes different from the first pupil size, wherein each additional Rx is determined for a corresponding size by calculating a value of the merit function for the previously-calculated Rx at the corresponding size and searching for an Rx at the corresponding size that provides a larger value of the merit function than the previously-calculated Rx at the corresponding size; determining a final Rx based on the first Rx and the additional Rx's; and outputting the final Rx. | 03-20-2014 |
20110194074 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SUBJECTIVE REFRACTION - An article for performing a subjective refraction includes a lens having a mean power that varies across the lens in a first direction and a cylindrical power that varies across the lens in a second direction, orthogonal to the first direction, wherein the mean power varies by four diopters or more and the cylindrical power varies by four diopters or more. | 08-11-2011 |
