Abstract
A multifocal ophthalmic lens wherein a first surface of the lens is shaped to form a surface power map and a second surface of the lens is shaped to form a second surface power map. The first surface power map and the second surface power map together form a lens power map. The first surface power map, the second surface power map, or the lens power map comprises a spiral. The spiral has a variation across at least a portion of the lens. Methods of making and using such lenses are also provided.
