    摘要: A system and method for manufacturing an ophthalmic lens is provided. The method involves preparing a cross-polarization cancelling optical film for an optical article comprising providing a film having at least a first section comprising a first edge, a second section comprising a second edge, and a predetermined color intensity; providing an apparatus, wherein the apparatus comprises at least a first roller and a second roller, wherein the first roller and the second roller are configured to stretch at least a portion of the film; and continuously and asymmetrically stretching at least a portion of the film using the apparatus, while substantially maintaining the color intensity of the film.

    摘要: Optical polymeric sheets with specific ranges of optical retardation, elastic modulus, and Shore A hardness were used to construct flexible polar patches. The polar patches conform to non-polarizing lenses of various diopter bases and provide polarizing efficiency that is comparable to regular polarizing lenses.

    摘要: A method for injection molding of a weld line free minus power lens element comprises injecting a melt of thermoplastic material at a temperature higher than a glass transition temperature (Tg) of the thermoplastic material in an initial molding cavity delimited by two facing mold inserts, wherein the melt of thermoplastic material comprises at least one UV absorber. During the injecting, the two facing mold inserts are moved toward one another to define a final molding cavity whose volume is less than that of the initial molding cavity. After cooling and disassembling of the two facing mold inserts, the weld line free minus power lens element is recovered. One of the two facing mold inserts comprises a flat surface facing the initial molding cavity, thereby to form a flat surface on one side of the weld line free minus power lens element. The other of the two facing mold inserts comprises a convex surface facing the initial molding cavity, thereby to form a concave surface on an opposite side of the weld line free minus power lens element.

    摘要: A method for injection molding of a plus power lens element comprises injecting a melt of thermoplastic material comprising at least one UV absorber at a temperature higher than a glass transition temperature (Tg) of the thermoplastic material in an initial molding cavity delimited by two facing mold inserts. During the injecting, the two facing mold inserts are moved toward one another to define a final molding cavity whose volume is less than that of the initial molding cavity. After cooling and opening of the mold cavity, the plus power lens element is recovered. One of the two facing mold inserts comprises a flat surface facing the initial molding cavity, thereby to form a flat surface on one side of the plus power lens element, and the other of the two facing mold inserts comprises a concave surface facing the initial molding cavity, thereby to form a convex surface on an opposite side of the plus power lens element.
