  • High refractive index polarized spectacle lens
    Patent number: 11067834
    Abstract: A high refractive index, polarized spectacle lens and a process for the production of the lens are provided. The lens includes a high refractive index lens substrate and a multi-layer, polarized film. The multi-layer, polarized film, in turn, includes at least one transparent support layer and at least two adhesion layers, wherein at least one of the adhesion layers is a polarized adhesion layer.
    Type: Grant

  • Gradient polarized ophthalmic lens
    Patent number: 9939660
    Abstract: A polarized ophthalmic lens has a polarization gradient with a primary light transmission gradient. The lens also includes a secondary light transmission gradient, the secondary light transmission gradient being complementary to the primary light transmission gradient such that the lens exhibits uniform light transmission.
