Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide novel contact lens manufacturing method and contact lens capable of giving a lens inner surface shape reflecting a cornea shape of a contact lens wearer more easily than before with sufficient accuracy to reflect the cornea shape, thereby improving comfort during use. By using statistical information on a corneal surface shape obtained from a population of target eyes having a feature to be treated, a fitting for a rotationally-symmetric shape is performed based on a definitional equation using a radius of curvature (R) and a conic constant (C.C.) while a fitting for a rotationally-asymmetric shape is performed based on a definitional equation using a Zernike function. A shape of a lens rear surface ( 20 ) corresponding to the corneal surface shape specified by these definitional equations is adopted for a rear surface of a peripheral area of a contact lens ( 10 ).

Claim (Index 6):
The contact lens manufacturing method according to  claim 1 , wherein the feature that is the subject of prescription with the target eyes is myopia.
