Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a defocus lens, and more particularly to a microstructure defocus lens that can reduce phase abrupt changes around the microstructure. Background Technology
[0002] Microstructured lenses (such as lenses and cylinders) are currently the mainstream type of defocused eyeglasses. For example, patent "Eyeglass Lens" (2013106281748) discloses an eyeglass lens for correcting peripheral hyperopic defocus of the retina. This lens consists of a first refractive region located in the center and a second refractive region located in the periphery. The first refractive region is a uniform and smooth refractive surface, and the second refractive region is a 360° annular refractive surface composed of multiple independent island-shaped microlenses. These microstructured lenses are all made by molds. When making the mold, the microstructure needs to be engraved on the base surface. It is difficult to make the edges of the microstructure and the edges of the base surface smooth, and there is a difference in refractive power between them and the base film. This difference will cause a phase abrupt change. When light passes through this position, it will cause a large phase change, which in turn will cause a large change in refractive power (including spherical power and cylinder power). When lenses are made using this type of mold, phase abrupt changes around the microstructure are superimposed on the lens. Although hardening coatings can smooth out some of these geometric abrupt changes, the phase abrupt changes around the microstructure do not decrease but rather increase because the refractive indices of the hardening fluid and coating materials differ from those of the lens material itself. When light passes through the microstructure periphery of the lens, a large optical path difference is added, causing phase abrupt changes and resulting in high spherical and cylindrical powers in the fundus, thus affecting myopia management efficiency. How to reduce phase abrupt changes around the microstructure is a problem that urgently needs to be solved for current microstructure defocused lenses. Solving this problem can further improve the efficiency of myopia management. Utility Model Content

[0004] Technical solution: This utility model includes a substrate and a functional area adsorbed on the substrate. The functional area includes a central area and a defocusing functional area.

The functional areas include a central area 2 and a defocusing functional area 3, with the defocusing functional area 3 surrounding the central area 2. The defocusing functional area 3 includes several microstructures 301, each surrounded by a phase abrupt change reduction area 302.

The substrate 1 provides the refractive power required for visual correction, the microstructures 301 provide defocus signal stimulation to the fundus, and the phase abrupt change reduction area 302 is used to reduce phase abrupt changes in the periphery of the microstructures.

[0021] The distribution of the phase abrupt change reduction region 302 is not limited to scatterers, opaque pigments, engraved meshes, engraved lines, or other structures that obstruct the direct transmission of light, and its light transmission ratio does not exceed 80%.
[0022] The refractive power range of the corrected visual acuity of the substrate 1 is -10D to 10D, and the astigmatism is -5D to 5D. The types of substrate 1 are not limited to spherical lenses, single aspherical lenses, double aspherical lenses, freeform lenses, etc.
[0023] The defocus functional area 3 has no fewer than 6 rings, the central area 2 has a diameter of no less than 5 mm, and microstructures 301 are distributed within the rings. The diameter of each microstructure 301 is no less than 0.5 mm, and the size of each microstructure 301 is no less than one type. Different microstructures 301 have different defocus amounts. The distribution of microstructures 301 within a single ring is not limited to one type. There are gaps between adjacent microstructures 301, and they are not tightly connected.

The functional areas include a central area 2 and a defocusing functional area 3. The defocusing functional area 3 includes a microstructure 301 and a phase abrupt change reduction area 302 surrounding the microstructure. The phase abrupt change reduction area 302 is arranged radially outward from the center of the microstructure 301, with its starting position at 0.8 times the diameter of the microstructure and its ending position at 1.3 times the diameter of the microstructure 301. The phase abrupt change reduction area 302 employs... Figure 3The scattering structure in (a) is used to block direct light transmission. The refractive power of substrate 1 is -2D for visual acuity and -1D for astigmatism. Substrate 1 uses a double aspherical lens. The defocusing functional area 2 has 9 rings, with a central diameter of 6mm. Microstructures 301, each 1mm in diameter, are distributed within the rings. The additional defocusing amount of microstructures 301 decreases from +3.5D outwards to 2.6D. Adjacent microstructures 301 must have gaps and be evenly spaced at 0.3mm intervals. Microstructures 301 are microlenses.
