ABSTRACT:
A method for producing multiple images of an object for an eye using an artificial lens system having eccentric lens is shown. The method comprises the steps of affixing to an eye an artificial lens system having a first optical lens system and a second optical lens systems wherein the principal axis of each lens system is eccentric to each other and at least one of the first optical lens system and the second optical lens system includes a prism positioned on a selected surface thereof for directing light rays from an object through each lens system of the multifocal optical lens system onto a macula of an eye.
