Abstract

A method includes providing an ophthalmic lens having a prescribed optical power, the ophthalmic lens having a surface having a base curvature corresponding to the prescribed optical power, and exposing a material at the surface to laser radiation sufficient to locally reshape the material to form a plurality of lenslets on the surface. The lenslets each have a corresponding optical power that differs from the prescribed optical power of the ophthalmic lens.
