1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a pair of astigmia correcting eyeglasses, particularly to one provided with better effectiveness for focusing point and to be used by a person suffering from astigmia.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Astigmia is a kind of eye flaw that eyeballs deflect light incorrectly, and the light deflecting system of the eyeball is composed of a cornea and a crystalline lens. If the outer surface of the light deflecting system becomes not perfectly circular, parallel rays of light coming from an exterior source do not converge on a single focal point on the retina and become plural images a little superposed on each other, and then this is called astigmia or astigmatism.
Conventional astigmia eyeglasses shown in
However, although the conventional astigmia correcting eyeglasses can obtain the correcting effect, its focusing effect is not so good as expected, because the viewing line of a user may be hidden by the post-shaped through holes to result in bad focusing function when the user sees an exterior object through the many through holes in the lenses, easily producing blind spots or a dead angle. And the reason is that the post-shaped through holes have the same diameter at two ends, and the lenses are curved to correspond to a facial surface.
The feature of the invention is a plurality of cone-shaped through holes provided in each lens of a pair of astigmia correcting eyeglasses. The cone-shaped through holes respectively have a larger diameter at an inner side than that at an outer side, and the cone-shaped through holes located nearer the circumference of the lens have larger inclined angles at a side near the circumference of the lens than the cone-shaped through holes located in the center portion.
This invention will be better understood by referring to the accompanying drawings, wherein:
A preferred embodiment of an astigmia correcting eyeglasses in the present invention, as shown in
The lenses 12 are respectively provided with a plurality of cone-shaped through holes 121, which respectively have a large diameter at an inner side than that at an outer side. Referring to
Therefore, further referring to
Compared with the conventional astigmia correcting eyeglasses, the astigmia correcting eyeglasses according to the invention have the two lenses provided with the cone-shaped through holes having a larger diameter at the inner side than that at the outer side, and the cone-shaped through holes located nearer to the circumference of the lens have larger inclined angles at the side near the circumference of the lens than those located in the center portion, so that there may not occur dead angles or blind spots when the person sees through the lenses of the astigmia correcting eyeglasses in the invention owing to the better focusing function, with the viewing lines of the user not obstructed by the through holes because of the cone-shape of the through holes.
While the present invention has been described above, it will be recognized and understood that various modifications may be made therein and the appended claimed are intended to cover all such modifications that may fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
This patent application is being filed as a Continuation-in-Part of patent application Ser. No. 11/417,101, filed 4 May 2006 now abandoned.
