Abstract
A lens or optic, including a sunglass lens or sunglass optic, providing ocular photo-bio-stimulation therapy.
Claims30
A sunglass lens or sunglass optic, wherein the sunglass lens or sunglass optic provides light transmission of 40% or 50% or more of ocular photo-bio-stimulation light measured within a light wavelength range of 450 nm-510 nm to an eye of a wearer of the sunglass lens or sunglass optic, wherein a light transmission curve spectra of the sunglass lens or sunglass optic when superimposed on or over a light absorption curve spectra of melanopsin and rhodopsin covers 50% or more or 75% or more of the melanopsin and rhodopsin absorption curve spectra, and wherein an overall visible light transmission of the sunglass lens or sunglass optic is 30% or less.
A sunglass lens or sunglass optic, wherein the sunglass lens or sunglass optic provides a light transmission of 40% or more of ocular photo-bio-stimulation light measured over a range greater than 30 nm but less than 61 nm or over a range greater than 30 nm but less than 71 nm, within a light wavelength range of 450 nm to 510 nm or 450 nm to 520 nm, to an eye of a wearer of the sunglass lens or sunglass optic, and wherein the sunglass lens or sunglass optic further provides an overall visible light transmission percentage of less than 40%.
A sunglass lens or sunglass optic, wherein the sunglass lens or sunglass optic provides an overall visible light transmission of 30% or less, wherein the sunglass lens or sunglass optic provides a light transmission percentage within a range of 450 nm-510 nm of 50% or greater, and wherein, when the sunglass lens or sunglass optic is worn by a wearer in sunlight of 20,000 lux or more, the sunglass lens or sunglass optic is capable of transmitting 400 lux or more of light to an eye of the wearer within the range of 450 nm-510 nm from a morning until a late afternoon of a same day.
The sunglass lens or sunglass optic of 22, wherein light transmitted through the sunglass lens or sunglass optic has a light intensity of 350 lux or greater after transmission through the sunglass lens or sunglass optic.
