Contact lenses and methods relating thereto

A contact lens, the lens including an optic zone comprising:

• a central region, the central region having a centre of curvature that is on an optical axis;
• a first annular region, the first annular region having an off-axis centre of curvature that is a first distance from the optical axis, and the first annular region has a radial sagittal power profile that increases with increasing radial distance from the optical axis, with a gradient of between about 1.0 D/mm and about 20.0 D/mm, and
• at least one additional annular region that is concentric to the first annular region, each additional annular region having an off-axis centre of curvature that is a first distance from the optical axis, wherein each additional annular region has a radial sagittal power profile that increases with increasing radial distance from the optical axis, with a gradient of between about 1.0 D/mm and about 20.0 D/mm, and
• at a point halfway across the radial width of the first annular region, the radial sagittal power equals the average radial sagittal power of the central region.
