Abstract: The present disclosure includes optical articles comprising a film layer that has first and second film surfaces and is embossed such that the first film surface defines a plurality of concave optical elements and the second film surface defines a plurality of convex optical elements. The present optical articles can include one or more optical layers coupled to the film layer. Each of the optical layer(s) can encapsulate the concave optical elements or the convex optical elements.

Abstract: Disclosed are optical elements and the methods of producing the same. The optical element contains two or more near infrared absorbers mixed in an optical substrate, and one or more functional film disposed on the optical substrate. The method of producing the optical element comprises mixing two near infrared absorbers with different near infrared wavelengths absorption ranges and residual colors with a precursor of an optical substrate. The mixture is subsequently processed to produce an optical element that has broad near infrared wavelength absorption range, a high near infrared absorption level, and/or homogeneous color distribution.

Abstract: 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.
