Abstract

A luminaire includes a housing with a cavity, a non-planar lens, and a light emitter. The non-planar lens is coupled to the housing. The lens defines a generally circular footprint and a concavo-convex shape. The light emitter is positioned proximate an edge of the cavity and is configured to emit light into an edge of the lens and toward a center of the cavity.
