Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
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.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 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 symm…
