Abstract:
A hybrid lens includes a primary lens element having a pair of opposing optical surfaces and a secondary lens element disposed directly over at least one of the optical surfaces. The primary lens element may include a 3D-printed layer, and the secondary lens element may be over-formed by casting. An electronic component such as a dimming component, a waveguide component, or an eye-tracking component may be integrated into the hybrid lens.
