Abstract
A pair of right and left spectacle lenses each includes: a distance vision region and a near vision region; and a progressive region in which a refractive power progressively changes between the distance vision region and the near vision region. In the pair of right and left spectacle lenses mounted in a spectacle frame, a height position of a distance eye point that is a reference point of the distance vision region is different between right and left, and a corridor length connecting the distance vision region and the near vision region is different between right and left.
Claims14
A spectacle lens wherein
- in the pair of right and left spectacle lenses,
- the pair of right and left spectacle lenses each includes:
- a distance vision region and a near vision region;
- and a progressive region in which a refractive power progressively changes between the distance vision region and the near vision region;
- and
- in the pair of right and left spectacle lenses mounted in a spectacle frame,
- a height position of a distance eye point that is a reference point of the distance vision region is different between right and left, and
- a corridor length connecting the distance vision region and the near vision region is different between right and left.
A spectacle lens producing apparatus for producing a pair of right and left spectacle lenses each including:
- a distance vision region and a near vision region;
- and a progressive region in which a refractive power progressively changes between the distance vision region and the near vision region, the spectacle lens producing apparatus comprising:
- a reference lens setting means to set a reference lens common to right and left based on prescription information of a wearer;
- a reference object surface setting means to set a reference object surface formed of a plurality of object points arranged at different object distances based on the reference lens on right and left;
- and
- a designing means to set right and left prescription lenses based on prescription information of the wearer, set the right and left prescription lenses such that a height position of a distance eye point that is a reference point of the distance vision region is different between right and left in a state of being mounted in a spectacle frame, and design, for each prescription lens of the set right and left prescription lenses, a corridor of the prescription lens based on a principal ray from each object point on the reference object surface.
A spectacle lens designing method for designing a pair of right and left spectacle lenses each including:
- a distance vision region and a near vision region;
- and a progressive region in which a refractive power progressively changes between the distance vision region and the near vision region, the spectacle lens designing method comprising:
- a reference lens setting step of setting a reference lens common to right and left based on prescription information of a wearer;
- a reference object surface setting step of setting a reference object surface formed of a plurality of object points arranged at different object distances based on the reference lens on right and left;
- and
- a designing step of setting right and left prescription lenses based on prescription information of the wearer, setting the right and left prescription lenses such that a height position of a distance eye point that is a reference point of the distance vision region is different between right and left in a state of being mounted in a spectacle frame, and designing, for each prescription lens of the set right and left prescription lenses, a corridor of the prescription lens based on a principal ray from each object point on the reference object surface.
A spectacle lens designing program for designing a pair of right and left spectacle lenses each including:
- a distance vision region and a near vision region;
- and a progressive region in which a refractive power progressively changes between the distance vision region and the near vision region, the spectacle lens designing program causing a computer to execute:
- a reference lens setting step of setting a reference lens common to right and left based on prescription information of a wearer;
- a reference object surface setting step of setting a reference object surface formed of a plurality of object points arranged at different object distances based on the reference lens on right and left;
- and
- a designing step of setting right and left prescription lenses based on prescription information of the wearer, setting the right and left prescription lenses such that a height position of a distance eye point that is a reference point of the distance vision region is different between right and left in a state of being mounted in a spectacle frame, and designing, for each prescription lens of the set right and left prescription lenses, a corridor of the prescription lens based on a principal ray from each object point on the reference object surface.
