Patent number: 10162195Abstract: The method for manufacturing relates to an ophthalmic lens comprising a substrate and a functional film securely fastened to a curved face of said substrate. This method comprises a method for gluing the functional film, which is initially flat, to said curved face. The interferential and organic filtering film selected as said functional film filters a preset band of wavelengths and the gluing method is carried out so that the maximum of the degree of major deformation experienced by the film on a surface is lower than 3%. In the ophthalmic lens, the wavelength at which maximum filtration is observed at the center of the lens and the wavelength at which maximum filtration is observed at the periphery of the useful area of the lens differ by a less than 5%.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2015Date of Patent: December 25, 2018Assignee: ESSILOR INTERNATIONALInventor: Christelle Marck

Patent number: 9720261Abstract: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing an ophthalmic lens including a substrate and a functional film securely fastened to a curved face of the substrate. This method includes a method for gluing the initially flat functional film to the curved face. To ensure that the functional film when securely fastened to the curved face filters a preset band of wavelengths centered on a wavelength denoted ?p, multiple functional films are preselected; two knowledge bases are established experimentally; a film is selected, using the two knowledge bases, from the plurality of preselected films, the wavelength ?i? on which is centered the band of wavelengths that this film filters for a certain degree of deformation being equal to ?p when the degree of deformation is that given for the curvature in question; and the gluing method is implemented in order to securely fasten the selected film to the curved face.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2015Date of Patent: August 1, 2017Assignee: ESSILOR INTERNATIONAL (COMPAGNIE GENERALE D'OPTIQUE)Inventor: Christelle Marck
