Polarized plastic lens for spectacles and method for manufacturing polarized plastic lens for spectacles
There is provided a polarized plastic lens for spectacles configured to be thin having almost the same thickness as the thickness of a normal plastic lens for spectacles, and a method for manufacturing the polarized plastic lens for spectacles, the plastic lens including a first lens base material having an object-side surface; a second lens base material having an eyeball-side surface; and a polarized film provided between the first lens base material and the second lens base material so that a minimum value of a distance between the polarized film and the object-side surface is 0.3 mm or more and 0.7 mm or less.
1. A method for manufacturing a polarized plastic lens for spectacles, comprising:
applying an adhesive agent to a plurality of places of (i) a peripheral edge portion of a concave surface of a first mold, or (ii) a peripheral edge portion of a polarized film;
bonding the peripheral edge portion of the concave surface and the peripheral edge portion of the polarized film, through the adhesive agent applied to the plurality of places;
forming a cavity between the first mold and a second mold having a convex surface, by disposing the second mold opposite the first mold, the polarized film being sandwiched between the first mold and the second mold, the cavity having a first cavity part and a second cavity part, the first cavity part existing between the first mold and the polarized film, and the second cavity part existing between the second mold and the polarized film; and
forming a plastic lens including the polarized film, between the first mold and the second mold by injecting a plastic material composition into the cavity and thereafter solidifying the injected plastic material composition,
wherein both peripheral edge portions are bonded to each other by applying the adhesive agent thereto, so that a minimum value of a distance between the concave surface and the polarized film is 0.3 mm or more and 0.7 mm or less when bonding them.
2. A method for manufacturing a plastic lens for spectacles, comprising:
applying an adhesive agent to a plurality of places of (i) a peripheral edge portion of a molding surface of a first mold or (ii) a peripheral edge portion of a polarized film;
bonding the peripheral edge portion of the molding surface of the first mold and the peripheral edge portion of the polarized film, through the adhesive agent applied to the plurality of places;
forming a cavity between the first mold and a second mold, by disposing the second mold opposite the first mold, the polarized film being sandwiched between the first mold and the second mold, the cavity having a first cavity part and a second cavity part, the first cavity part existing between the first mold and the polarized film, and the second cavity part existing between the second mold and the polarized film; and
forming a plastic lens including the polarized film, between the first mold and the second mold by injecting a plastic material composition into the cavity and solidifying the injected plastic material composition,
wherein the adhesive agent is applied to the molding surface and the polarized film so that a minimum value of a distance between an object-side surface of the plastic lens and the polarized film is 0.3 mm or more and 0.7 mm or less.
3. The method for manufacturing a polarized plastic lens for spectacles according to claim 2 , wherein
the molding surface of the first mold is a concave surface for forming the object-side surface in the plastic lens, and
a molding surface of the second mold is a convex surface for forming an eyeball-side surface in the plastic lens.
4. The method for manufacturing a polarized plastic lens for spectacles according to claim 1 , wherein the concave surface is a spherical surface.
5. The method for manufacturing a polarized plastic lens for spectacles according to claim 2 , wherein the concave surface is a spherical surface.
6. The method for manufacturing a polarized plastic lens for spectacles according to claim 3 , wherein the concave surface is a spherical surface.
7. The method for manufacturing a polarized plastic lens for spectacles according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive agent is applied to the plurality of places so that a part of the peripheral edge portion of the concave surface and a part of the peripheral edge portion of the polarized film are bonded to each other, and the peripheral edge portion of the concave surface and the peripheral edge portion of the polarized film are not bonded to each other at areas between the plurality of places.
8. The method for manufacturing a polarized plastic lens for spectacles according to claim 2 , wherein the adhesive agent is applied to the plurality of places so that a part of the peripheral edge portion of the molding surface and a part of the peripheral edge portion of the polarized film are bonded to each other, and the peripheral edge portion of the molding surface and the peripheral edge portion of the polarized film are not bonded to each other at areas between the plurality of places.
