Method and apparatus for design and fabrication of customized eyewear

A method for producing customized eyewear, the method comprising:

• obtaining one or more parameters of a wearer's face or field of vision;
• determining a perimeter of a first lens based on the one or more parameters;
• and
• determining a perimeter of a second lens based on the one or more parameters,
• wherein determining the perimeters of the first and second lenses comprises:
• determining a provisional perimeter of the first lens;
• determining a provisional perimeter of the second lens;
• comparing the provisional perimeters of the first and second lenses;
• determining a final perimeter of a first lens based on the comparison;
• and
• determining a final perimeter of the second lens based on the comparison,
• thereby obtaining data for the customization of at least said first and second lenses, wherein said obtaining data for said customization of at least said first and second lens is based on extraction of a plurality of points taken in three-dimensional space and does not require the wearer to wear eyewear.

A method for producing customized eyewear, the method comprising:

• receiving dimensions of a perimeter of a first lens, the perimeter being customized for a wearer, wherein the dimensions were obtained based on extraction of a plurality of points taken in three-dimensional space without requiring the wearer to wear eyewear;
• receiving dimensions of a perimeter of a second lens, the perimeter being customized for the wearer, wherein the dimensions were obtained based on extraction of a plurality of points taken in three-dimensional space without requiring the wearer to wear eyewear;
• and
• fabricating first and second lenses based on the received dimensions, and
• assembling the first and second lenses in a frame,
• wherein the frame is customized for the wearer.

A method for producing customized eyewear, the method comprising:

• obtaining one or more parameters of a wearer's face or field of vision;
• determining a perimeter of a first lens based on the one or more parameters;
• and
• determining a perimeter of a second lens based on the one or more parameters,
• thereby obtaining data for the customization of at least said first and second lenses, wherein said obtaining involves extraction from a plurality of points taken in three dimensional space, and
• determining dimensions of a frame that are customized for the wearer.

Customized eyewear comprising:

• a first lens having a front surface, a back surface, and a perimeter, wherein the perimeter is customized for a wearer;
• and
• a second lens having a front surface, a back surface, and a perimeter, wherein the perimeter is customized for the wearer,
• wherein the perimeter of the first lens or the second lens is customized based on extraction of a plurality of points taken in three-dimensional space and a comparison of provisional perimeters for the first and second lenses.
