Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for supplying at least one molding device (2) with a polymerizable mixture of at least two reactants. According to the invention, said supply device comprises: a buffer tank (10) suitable for receiving said polymerizable mixture via an inlet (101) of said buffer tank, a supply circuit (11), looped with said buffer tank, to convey the polymerizable mixture to an inlet (110) of said at least one molding device and including, beyond said inlet of the molding device, a return pipe (115) connected to the inlet of the buffer tank for sending a portion of the polymerizable mixture from said return pipe, and a filling pipe (42) of said buffer tank, connected to said inlet of said buffer tank, separate from the return pipe, wherein said buffer tank is also suitable for receiving said polymerizable mixture or at least one of said reactants from said filling pipe.

Abstract: A liquid polymerizable composition including an amide or a thioamide derivative monomer with mineral nanoparticles homogeneously dispersed therein, as well as its use for the preparation of a transparent polymeric material having a high refractive index and its use in the optical field.

Abstract: A method for determining at least one optical conception parameter for a progressive ophthalmic lens intended to equip a frame of a wearer, depending on the visual behavior of the latter. The method comprises the following steps: a) collecting a plurality of behavioral measurements relating to a plurality of gaze directions and/or positions of the wearer during a visual task; b) statistically processing said plurality of behavioral measurements in order to determine a zone of use of the area of an eyeglass fitted in said frame, said zone of use being representative of a statistical spatial distribution of said plurality of behavioral measurements; and c) determining at least one optical conception parameter for said progressive ophthalmic lens depending on a spatial extent and/or position of the zone of use.

Abstract: Method of manufacturing an optical lens, the method comprising: a lens member providing step (S1) during which a lens member comprising a first surface and a first reference system identified by first markings on the first surface is provided, a surface data providing step (S2) during which surface data corresponding to a second surface and the position of the second surface relative to the first surface of the optical lens are provided, a blocking and machining step during which the lens member is blocked and the second surface is machined, a second markings determining an providing step (S4) during which second markings identifying a second reference system of the second surface are determined and provided according at least to optical data representing the refractive properties of the optical lens and to observation data representing observation conditions in which the first and second markings are to be observed.

Abstract: A progressive addition lens for a wearer, the optical lens having an addition lower by at least 0.5 diopter to the prescribed addition value of the wearer, wherein for a pupil diameter of 4 mm the modulation transfer function is greater or equal to 0.
