Abstract: A method of generating a target surface {tilde over (S)}( ?) of an optical lens for the manufacture of the optical lens according to optical lens parameters ?, the method comprising: providing a set of L first surface difference data E(?j) each first surface difference data E(?j) corresponding to the surface difference between a pre-calculated surface S?jpc(??j) (j=1, . . . , L) and an initial surface S?jini (j=1, . . . , L), from which the target surface will be generated, according to the expression: E(?j)=S?jpc(??j)?S?jini (j=1, . . . , L) where ?j (j=1, . . .

Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical article, in particular an ophthalmic lens comprising a substrate, a coating that includes at least one photodegradation-sensitive dye, and a photodegradation protection (anti-UV) coating for protecting the coating containing at least one photodegradation-sensitive dye, the photo-degradation protection coating comprising a blend of acrylate oligomers and monofunctional or multifunctional acrylate monomers, at least one UV absorber and at least one photoinitiator. This anti-UV coating used is particularly suitable for an ophthalmic lens in which the polarizing function is provided by a bilayer system, one layer of which comprises liquid crystals combined with dyes, and more particularly dichroic dyes. Advantageously, the anti-UV coating according to the invention is combined with an oxygen barrier layer.
