1. An eyeglass lens, comprising:
- a first layer comprising a first lens having a constant index of refraction; and
a second layer comprising a material having a varying index of refraction; and
a third layer comprising a second lens, the second layer being sandwiched between the first layer and the third layer;
the first and third layers being configured to substantially correct at least one error of a patient'"'"'s eye selected from the group consisting of spherical error and cylindrical error; and
the second layer being configured to substantially correct at least one aberration or at least one error of the patient'"'"'s eye.
