ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatuses are disclosed for improving peripheral vision by positioning the peripheral image points at a pre-determined and precise position relative to the retina to achieve optimal performance according to one or more pre-selected criteria parameters for optimal peripheral vision performance.
