  • Patent number: 11639442
    Abstract: This invention provides a method for creating a large-scale of amphiphilic particles. The method includes: adding nanoparticles into a polycarbonate-based solution, adding a surfactant into the solution while performing ultra-sonication to generate polymer precipitation, creating at least one microsphere with the nanoparticles embedded onto it, subjecting the exposed hemisphere of the embedded nanoparticles to a further amphiphilic particles related modification, and dissolving the at least one microsphere in a polycarbonate-based solution in order to free said embedded nanoparticles from the at least one microsphere.

  • Patent number: 10564067
    Abstract: An opaque adhesive can be used to secure the convex surface of a lens blank to a lens blocking piece. This opaque adhesive can include a resin that is curable under ultraviolet light and contains many dispersed pigment particles. The pigment particles may absorb light in the wavelength range of about 300 nm to about 800 nm such that the adhesive appears substantially opaque. A lens-on-block (LOB) system that uses the opaque adhesive to adhere a lens blank to a lens blocking piece facilitates on-block inspection of surface defects by increasing the contrast of light reflected from the surface being inspected. Put differently, the defects in the lens blank's surfaces stand out more when viewed in front of the opaque adhesive The inspection results can be used to carry out rework loops that eliminate or correct the detected defects, providing a streamlined method for on-block manufacturing of ophthalmic lenses.

  • Publication number: 20170276568
    Abstract: A blocked lens assembly suitable for on-block processing and cleaning includes a blocked lens and a sealing member disposed on at least a portion of an edge and/or surface defined by the blocked lens. The blocked lens further includes a lens blank having a front surface and a back surface, a lens blocking piece to hold the lens blank while processing the back surface of the lens blank, and an adhesive layer, disposed between the front surface of the lens blank and the lens blocking piece, to affix the lens blank to the lens blocking piece.
