However, 'the lens will rotate on the eye due to blinking and eyelid and tear movement. There are usually two types of lenses for maintaining eye orientation (o n_eye orientation;). Among them-the category uses prism stabi 1 i zat i on to maintain lens orientation. Examples of the method of spectroscopic stabilization include making lenses The front surface is eccentric relative to the rear surface, and the light is balanced. The lower edge of the lens is thickened so that the lens is supported on the lower eyelid. The formation of depressions or bulges on the lens surface and frustration of the lens edges. The second type is dynamic stabilization lenses, which use the movement of the eyelids to maintain the lens orientation. The dynamic stabilization method includes reducing the thickness of the outer surface of the lens and thickening it in two symmetrical horizontal areas. The two outward regions within the horizontal central axis, and the top and bottom regions of the thinned (or thinned) lens. Known methods of maintaining lens orientation suffer from a number of disadvantages, including the need for specialized processing of lenses that implement these methods The process is uncomfortable to wear, and the known method is not very effective.

The part covered by the invention description when used. The force bismuth is formed into M 丄. In a preferred embodiment, the Φ center part of one of the lenses is about 8 mm to 10 mm in diameter with the center of the lens as the center and T as the middle. In the first step of the method of the present invention, the shape of the cornea of the person who will wear the produced lens is determined. The shape of the cornea can be determined by any conventional method. Among them, the corneal topography (corner topographer) or corneal keratoscope is used to observe the cornea without any examples. Any conventional method for extracting corneal topography data can be used. Suitable methods include, without limitation, the use of the Moire technique, the use of commercially available corneal topography measuring devices, and the like, and combinations thereof. In order to shape a lens using the topographical data, the data is mathematically converted into the height (elevat) on the average spherical surface of the cornea, and then the height data is converted into a grid pattern. The grid pattern can be in a straight, highly concentric, or spiral format that conforms to a mechanism that can be used to digitally control a lathe, milling machine, or digitally addressable device to process the rear surface of a lens or a lens mold or insert. Alternatively, the lens surface can be machined or turned using a programmable laser ablation device. The lenses of the present invention may be hard or soft contact lenses. Preferably, these lenses are also soft contact lenses. The lens of the present invention may have any characteristic of incorporating a plurality of bridged optical characteristics of a convex surface (front surface), a concave surface (rear surface), or both surfaces. For example, the lens may have any one or more of a spherical, aspherical, bifocal, multifocal, prismatic, or cylindrical bridge correction. The present invention can require at least one correction characteristic of the lens phase 5 10 15 20 25 This paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 464605 A7 ------- B7_____ 5. Description of the Invention (if) The maximum effectiveness is found in lenses that maintain a stable eye orientation on the eye. In a preferred embodiment, the lens of the present invention is a toric soft contact lens, that is, a soft contact lens having a cylindrical optical surface (or power) for correcting astigmatism of the wearer. 5 In a more preferred embodiment, the lens is a lens customized for a particular lens wearer, such as a customized shape with contact lenses. These lenses can be provided by using eyepiece optical wavefront measurements, such as using a cylinder aberroscope [a cross-cylinder aberroscope] [a measurement of eyepiece modulation via a point or line distribution 10 transfer function (Modulation Transfer Function) or by using the output of any similar device that measures, estimates, interpolates, or calculates the optical wavefront of the eyepiece. Eyepiece optical wavefront information relates to the optical components of the eye 'including the cornea, lens, system length, inclination, eccentricity, asymmetry, irregularity, and asphericity of eye components. 15 The lens surface height or slope change required to achieve total eyepiece wavefront aberration correction can be applied only to the concave surface, only to the convex surface, or a combination of the two. The required surface height or slope change takes into account the height changes required to fit and correct irregularities in the corneal topography. In the case of a soft contact lens, since the soft lens covers the basic shape of the cornea, the total height change from the corneal topography 20 mapping and eyepiece wavefront aberration determination can be applied only to the convex surface, only to the concave surface, or both Of combination. In a preferred embodiment of a customized shape-matching lens, the conventional spherical-cylindrical prescription information can also be used to design a shaped lens. This information includes the telephoto spherical power, the telephoto aspheric cylinder power and the axis, and if necessary, the near and near power. This information can be determined using conventional subjective refraction techniques.

For the case where the lens of the invention is a soft contact lens, the initial height data is applied to an undeflected contact lens model. The rear surface of the contact lens is finally shaped to take into account the lens deflection or coverage when the lens is placed on the eye Similar to corneal surface In general, soft lenses are flatter than the cornea where they are placed. Therefore, the height and coverage must be considered when making a soft contact lens surface or mold insert from the original corneal topography. The data can be drawn on a CNC grid pattern and used to manufacture a lens or a mold tool surface.

When the manufactured soft lens perfectly covers the underlying cornea, fluctuations in surface height usually disappear. In this way, the irregularity of the cornea can be offset and the optical astigmatism caused by the irregular shape of the cornea can also be substantially eliminated. To achieve any additional optical correction, such as spherical or astigmatic focusing, appropriate curvature can be incorporated into the front, rear, or front and rear surfaces of the mirror. For practical considerations, the ideal cornea is assumed to be spherical. At this time, the true corneal height and its optimal spherical fit are represented by f (X) and g (x), respectively, from the viewpoint of the least square method. The g (x) function is a part of a spherical surface with a radius. Overall, the radius of undeflected soft contact lenses! ^ Is spherical and has a radius larger than the optimal spherical fit g (X). Therefore, the first step is to convert the corneal angle f (X) into a larger proportion that will make the radius of the best spherical fit equal to L. One way to simplify this conversion is to express the f (X) function as f (0) in polar coordinates. Then, using a scale factor α =, the scaled version of the south of the cornea can be expressed as: f {l \ e) = ccf {e) (1) The magnified corneal height f ... (0) is reduced by an equal ratio to make the soft lens The area covered corresponds to the corneal area. In the two-dimensional case, the reduction of these ratios is obtained according to the following relationship: / {2) (< 5 ·) = α-7 (,) [(^-π / 2) / α + Λ- / 2] + Λ2 (ι_1 / α ^ (2) The mapping transformation given in equation U ... 2) can infer the situation of three-dimensional transformation. In this case, the corneal height can be represented by the f () function, where Θ and azimuth represent azimuth and elevation, respectively.

However, in the three-dimensional case, there are several options for maintaining the area to perform the scaling operation. For example, if the deformation of the material is assumed to be uniform radial, the scaling operation can be performed by only scaling the elevation angle. Keep the original azimuth.
