Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of eyeglass lenses, and in particular to a refractive defocus lens. Background Art
[0002] When the eye is in a relaxed state of accommodation, parallel light from the outside world enters the eye and its focus falls exactly on the retina, forming a clear image. This is called emmetropia. If it focuses in front of the retina, this results in a lack of a clear image on the retina, which is called myopia. If it focuses behind the retina, this results in a lack of a clear image on the retina, which is called hyperopia. The refractive state in which the focus cannot fall on the retina is refractive error. During the visual development stage of children and adolescents, refractive errors, especially myopia and hyperopia, seriously affect their quality of life and learning outcomes. At the same time, the occurrence of hyperopia can also affect normal visual development and may lead to problems such as amblyopia and strabismus. Glasses, as a commonly used optical correction device, are usually used to treat various types of refractive errors. However, for children, refractive error correction requires not only correcting the abnormal refractive state of the eye, but also suppressing the further development of the abnormal state. One of the key theories for myopia prevention and control is the optical defocus theory. Currently, there are many designs of myopia prevention and control lenses based on the optical defocus theory. Their basic structure mainly includes two key parts: the central visual distance zone and the peripheral optical defocus zone. The central visual distance zone of this type of lens can ensure that the image of the object is focused on the retina of the eye, thereby ensuring the clarity of visual identification of objects, while the peripheral optical defocus zone can focus the image in front of the retina of the eye, while forming a certain degree of myopic defocus, thereby suppressing the progression of myopia. In addition, by designing the peripheral optical defocus zone, the focus is focused behind the retina, forming hyperopic defocus, which helps to improve the progression of hyperopia and promote normal visual development. Although existing myopia and hyperopia correction lenses based on the optical defocus theory have achieved certain results, the suppression effect is still not ideal in some children with myopia.

When viewing objects, after passing through the near vision area below the lens and reaching the upper retina, it forms more refractive power than the far vision area, producing an upper vision The defocus difference between the retina and the underlying retina; this regional defocus design can better meet the different defocus requirements for far and near vision, thereby achieving better myopia and hyperopia control effects and a better visual experience; the refractive defocus lenses of the present application can achieve precise vision correction, myopia prevention and control, and promote the emmetropization of hyperopia in different refractive zones. The first refractive zone provides basic vision correction to ensure a clear visual experience.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment, the additional positive refractive power of the second optical defocus zone is lower than that of the third optical defocus zone, including but not limited to the second optical defocus zone and the third optical defocus zone forming differential defocus as a whole, or adopting a progressively increasing positive refractive power setting; forming differentiated defocus above and below the lens to better adapt to different vision needs, the positive refractive power of the lower defocus zone is higher than that of the upper defocus zone, forming an overall differential defocus or a progressively increasing change mode, forming a differentiated defocus or gradient defocus state above and below the retina, providing fine vision correction while effectively inhibiting the progression of myopia. Specifically, the first refractive area ensures that external light can be accurately focused on the retina of the eye after passing through the area, the second optical defocus area focuses the image in front of the lower retina of the eye, and the third optical defocus area focuses the image in front of the upper retina of the eye, and the defocus refractive power added by the third optical defocus area is higher than the refractive power of the second optical defocus area, and the point formed by the third optical defocus area is located in front of the point formed by the second optical defocus area; when viewing objects, after passing through the near vision area below the lens and reaching the upper retina, it forms more positive refractive power than the far vision area, resulting in the upper retina and the lower retina. defocus difference; this regional defocus design can better meet the different defocus requirements for far and near, thereby achieving better myopia control effect and better visual experience; the refractive defocus lens of the present application can achieve precise vision correction and myopia prevention and control effects in different refractive zones. The first refractive zone provides basic vision correction to ensure a clear visual experience. The second optical defocus zone and the third optical defocus zone achieve different degrees of myopic defocus for far and near vision through different refractive power distributions, inhibit the development of myopia, and improve the wearer's visual comfort at different viewing distances.
[0031] Alternatively, the added negative refractive power (absolute value) of the second optical defocus zone is lower than that of the third optical defocus zone, including but not limited to forming differential defocus between the second and third optical defocus zones as a whole, or adopting a progressively increasing negative refractive power setting. Specifically, the first refractive zone is set in the center of the lens, the second optical defocus zone is set above the first refractive zone, and the third optical defocus zone is set below the first refractive zone, and the added negative refractive power in the second and third optical defocus zones is distributed from low to high from the top to the bottom of the lens.

[0033] Preferably, the second optical defocus zone and the third optical defocus zone are composed of microlenses or cylindrical lenses. The shape of the first refractive zone is a geometric shape such as a circle, an ellipse, a rectangle, a regular polygon, etc. Specifically, as a feasible way, a circular area with a radius of 3mm-20mm is set in the center of the lens, and covers other areas except the optical defocus zone set by the microlens array, cylindrical lens array or concentric circles; the second optical defocus zone is composed of independent microlenses or cylindrical lenses with a diameter of 0.6-1.5mm, and the distance between the center points of two adjacent microlenses or cylindrical lenses is 0.7mm to 4.0mm; the third optical defocus zone is composed of independent microlenses or cylindrical lenses with a diameter of 0.6-1.5mm, and the distance between the center points of two adjacent microlenses or cylindrical lenses is 0.7mm to 4.0mm. The difference in refractive power between the second optical defocus zone and the third optical defocus zone causes the positive refractive power of the third optical defocus zone to be higher than that of the second optical defocus zone, and the additional amount ranges from 0.5D to 10.0D; the diameter of each microlens can be set to be the same, or it can be set to have a diameter that increases radially outward; by adjusting its diameter, center point spacing and arrangement, areas of different refractive power are formed, so that the refractive power in the two optical areas is distributed from low to high.

[0037] Figure 2 In the plan view of the refractive defocus lens shown, the ratio of the second optical defocus zone to the third optical defocus zone is approximately 50% to 50%, and this partition ratio of the two can be any value between 10% and 90%; the distribution of the two optical areas is obliquely symmetrical, and of course, oblique symmetry, top-to-bottom symmetry or other asymmetrical designs can also be adopted to adapt to and optimize the correction effect of different users.
[0038] Figure 3 In the plan view of the refractive defocus lens shown, the ratio of the second optical defocus zone to the third optical defocus zone is also 50% to 50%. This partition ratio of the two can be any value between 10% and 90%, and the distribution of the two optical areas is symmetrical in the upper and lower forms; in particular, the second optical defocus zone and the third optical defocus zone do not completely fill the lens area outside the first refractive zone to meet the needs of different users.

[0040] Figure 5 In the plan view of the refractive defocus lens shown, the second and third optical zones may not completely cover all areas except the first refractive zone, and the ratio of the two areas may vary between 10% and 90%; a microcylindrical concentric circle structure is formed between the first refractive zone and the second and third optical zones, and the diameters of the concentric circles in the two areas can be set to be the same or increase radially outward. The positive refractive power (or the absolute value of the negative refractive power) of the third optical defocus zone is higher than that of the second optical defocus zone, and the addition range is 0.5D to 10.0D.
