Lens Systems - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240272455 titled 'Lens Systems
The patent application describes a lens system with overlapping lenses that can shift laterally to provide vision correction, including adjustable presbyopic and static distance vision correction.
- The lens system includes first and second lenses with freeform and non-freeform surfaces.
- The lenses can shift laterally to adjust for presbyopic vision correction.
- The system can also provide static distance vision correction.
- The overlapping design allows for a more customizable and precise vision correction.
- The use of freeform surfaces enhances the accuracy and effectiveness of the vision correction.
Potential Applications: - Ophthalmic lenses for eyeglasses - Contact lenses with adjustable vision correction - Vision correction devices for virtual reality headsets
Problems Solved: - Addressing presbyopia and distance vision issues in a single lens system - Providing a more customizable and precise vision correction solution
Benefits: - Improved vision correction accuracy - Enhanced comfort and convenience for users - Versatile solution for various vision correction needs
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Lens System for Enhanced Vision Correction This technology can be used in the eyewear industry to create advanced ophthalmic lenses and contact lenses with customizable vision correction capabilities. The market implications include meeting the growing demand for more precise and versatile vision correction solutions.
Questions about Lens System with Overlapping Lenses: 1. How does the overlapping design of the lenses contribute to vision correction? 2. What are the advantages of using freeform surfaces in the lens system?
Original Abstract Submitted
a lens system may include overlapping lenses that shift laterally with respect to each other to provide vision correction. the lens system may include first and second lenses that include one or more freeform surfaces and one or more non-freeform surfaces. one or more of these lens surfaces may provide adjustable presbyopic vision correction and/or a static distance vision correction.
