Abstract

A functional dyed lens for spectacles is obtained by dyeing at least one of the surfaces of an undyed plastic lens, and in the functional dyed lens, a dyeing density defined as a difference in luminous transmittance from the undyed plastic lens is 2% or more but 4% or less, and a difference in average transmittance from the undyed plastic lens in a wavelength region of 530 nm to 570 nm is 3% or more but 5% or less.

Claims (10)

1. A functional dyed lens for spectacles obtained by dyeing a lens base,

wherein a dyeing density defined as a difference in luminous transmittance from an undyed plastic lens formed of the lens base is 2% or more but 4% or less,

wherein a difference in average transmittance from the undyed plastic lens in a wavelength region of 530 nm to 570 nm is 3% or more but 5% or less,

wherein the undyed plastic lens has a luminous transmittance in terms of 2 mm thickness of 94.5 to 99.9%, and

wherein the undyed plastic lens has an average transmittance in terms of 2 mm thickness of 94.5 to 99.9% in the wavelength region of 530 nm to 570 nm.

2. The functional dyed lens for spectacles according to claim 1 , wherein at least one surface of the lens base is dyed.

3. The functional dyed lens for spectacles according to claim 1 , wherein the undyed plastic lens has an average transmittance in terms of 2 mm thickness of 94.5 to 99.9% in a wavelength region of 430 nm to 470 nm.

4. The functional dyed lens for spectacles according to claim 3 , wherein a difference in average transmittance from the undyed plastic lens in a wavelength region of 430 nm to 470 nm is 2% or less.

5. The functional dyed lens for spectacles according to claim 1 , wherein the undyed plastic lens has an average transmittance in terms of 2 mm thickness of 97.0 to 99.9% in a wavelength region of 630 nm to 670 nm.

6. The functional dyed lens for spectacles according to claim 5 , wherein a difference in average transmittance from the undyed plastic lens in a wavelength region of 630 nm to 670 nm is 3.5% or less.
