A multifocal lens device is disclosed. The device comprises, a lens body having two opposite sides, wherein a first side has an aspheric profile and a diffractive pattern formed thereon, and the second side has a toric profile and is devoid of any diffractive pattern. In some embodiments of the present invention the diffractive pattern covers at least 80% of an area of the aspheric profile.

A method for designing an optical component for shaping laser light according to one embodiment of this invention measures the intensity distribution of an incident laser light, obtains the shapes in the short and long axial directions of a pair of aspheric lenses for each of the short and long axial directions of the incident laser light from the measured intensity distribution of the incident laser light and a desired intensity distribution, performs approximation of a high-order polynomial of the shapes in the short and long axial directions of the pair of aspheric lenses, corrects the high-order polynomials for the short or long axial directions using a correction factor, and obtains the shapes of the pair of aspheric lenses on the basis of the corrected high-order polynomials.
摘要:
An arrangement is made such that the magnitude of cure shrinkage obtained by multiplying the thickness of a resin layer 2 between a master mold 1 and a negative mold substrate 3 by the cure shrinkage ratio of the resin and the magnitude of cure shrinkage obtained by multiplying the thickness of a resin layer 4 between the negative mold 23 and the surface of the spherical or flat substrate 5 by the cure shrinkage ratio of the resin can be compensated for by each other. In accordance with this method, an aspherical optical element having a higher precision than ever can be formed at reduced cost by a replica method involving the addition of a resin layer to the surface of a spherical or flat substrate.

A process for the automatic manufacturing of different toric optical lenses having a front surface and a rear surface having a predetermined rotational orientation relative to one another, and with at least one of the front and rear surfaces having a toric portion, comprises forming a first toric lens by: introducing a starting material into a lens mold (3) comprising a male mold half (30) and a female mold half (31) defining a mold cavity between the shaping surfaces of the male and female mold halves, the shaping surfaces being arranged at a first rotational position relative to one another and at least one of them being toric, and curing the starting material in the mold cavity to form the first toric lens. The process further comprises subsequently forming a second toric lens different from the first toric contact lens using the same male and female mold halves (30,31) by rotating the first and second mold halves (30,31) relative to one another so as to be arranged at a second rotational position relative to one another, and then forming the second lens in a similar manner. The step of rotating the male and female mold halves (30,31) relative to one another is performed automatically in the production line.

The invention provides methods of manufacturing toric lenses, apparatuses useful in the method of the invention, and lenses produced according to the method in which method the position of one mold half in relation to its complementary mold half is more precisely controlled so that tilting and rotation of the mold halves in relation to each other is substantially eliminated.
摘要:
The optical surface of a lens (21) held and rotated by the rotating shaft (12) of a lathe is cut or ground into an aspherical surface from a direction perpendicular to the axis of the rotating shaft (12) and the axial direction of the rotating shaft (12) while a processing locus (t) which is concentric or spiral about the rotating shaft (12) as the center is formed. In processing, the lens (21) is arranged in a grinding region (20) at a position spaced apart from the turning center (Zo) of the processing locus (t).
摘要:
A method for fabrication of a lens element from a lens blank shaped from a high index, high thermal property thermoplastic resin conditions the surface of the lens blank by an extended annealing process. The temperature of the lens blank is increased to a soak temperature greater than 165 degrees C. over a ramp-up period of more than 2.5 hours, increasing the temperature during the ramp-up period by no more than 2 degrees C. per minute, on average. The lens blank is maintained at the soak temperature for a soak period of at least 3 hours. The temperature of the lens blank is lowered back to room temperature during a ramp-down period at a rate no faster than 1.5 degrees C. per minute, on average. This forms a conditioned lens blank that is diamond-turned to obtain an optical quality surface.
