Method of adjusting a blended extended depth of focus light adjustable lens with laterally offset axes

A method of adjusting a Light Adjustable Lens (LAL), the method comprising the steps of:

• implanting a LAL into an eye, the LAL having a pre-molded position-dependent peripheral optical power in at least a peripheral annulus, centered on an annulus axis;
• determining a central region and a corresponding central axis of the LAL;
• and
• applying a central illumination to the LAL with a central illumination pattern to induce a position-dependent central optical power in the central region of the LAL;
• wherein
• the central axis is laterally shifted relative to the annulus axis, and
• an average of the central optical power is at least 0.5 diopters different from an average of the peripheral optical power.
