Patent ID: 8066767

Claim:
An intraocular lens configured such that, in an in vivo environment of a human eye, an incoming wave with an elliptically oblately curved wave front is refracted into an outgoing wave with a spherical wave front, wherein refractive power in a center of the lens in the in vivo environment of the human eye is greater than or equal to +3 dpt, the intraocular lens comprises at least one convexly curved surface having a curvature which follows the function: y 2 =2 px −(1 +asph ) x 2 , wherein x is a direction of light propagation or lens thickness, y specifies a direction perpendicular thereto, radially outwardly with respect to the center of the lens, p is a parameter and asph is asphericity, and wherein the curvature of the at least one convexly curved surface has an asphericity of less than −2.0, and wherein the intraocular lens is so designed that in an air environment, an incoming wave with a plane wave front is refracted into an outgoing wave with a hyperbolic wave front.
