Abstract: A digital measurement system and method for optical applications including a mobile client device having a digital camera and an audio port, and a laser measurement device having a laser. The laser measurement device connected to the mobile client device and electrically connected to the audio port of the mobile client device. The mobile client device is configured to activate the laser at the same time as the digital camera is activated, and capture an image of a patient. The mobile client device is configured to access a measurement module to calculate position of wear measurements based on a location of a laser mark in the captured image.

Abstract: A digital measurement system and method for optical applications including a mobile client device having a digital camera and an audio port, and a laser measurement device having a laser and a magnetic card reader. The laser measurement device and the magnetic card reader are electrically connected to the audio port of the mobile client device. The mobile client device is configured to activate the laser at the same time as the digital camera is activated, capture an image of a patient, and calculate position of wear measurements based on a location of a laser mark in the captured image. The mobile client device also allows an order for a frame and lenses to be submitted to an ophthalmic laboratory, and payment transactions to be processed using the magnetic card reader.

Abstract: A composition adapted for use in an in-situ coating process for coating an optical surface for ophthalmic applications. A coating composition according to the present invention includes at least one multifunctional acrylate compound which is cured onto a heated surface with controlled coating distribution in an ophthalmic injection mold. For example, the composition may include an acrylic base cured with an initiator, e.g., t-butyl perbenzoate, and may further include at least one catalyst and at least one metal salt. An acrylic base according to the present invention may include a combination of monofunctional and/or multifunctional acrylate and/or methacrylate compounds.

Abstract: A substrate having at least one main surface comprising a first coating deposited on said main surface and a second coating having anti-soiling properties deposited and adhering on the surface of said first coating, the first coating being a (meth)acrylate based coating and being obtained by polymerizing a polymerizable composition comprising: i) at least one (meth)acrylate compound and ii) at least one compound I having at least one—M-Z? bond with M representing Si or a Metal atom, Z? representing OH or a hydrolysable group, and at least one ethylenic unsaturated group or epoxy group, and/or iii) at least one silica or metal oxide colloid having free ethylenically unsaturated groups; and the second coating, having anti-soiling properties, being obtained by depositing on said first coating an anti-soiling coating composition comprising at least one compound II, or a hydrolyzate thereof, having at least one—Si-Z? group with Z? representing OH or a hydrolysable group.

Abstract: A method that includes providing a lens having a first side, a second side, and an anti-reflective or mirror coating on the first side; depositing a heat-curable coating on the second side of the lens; and heating the heat-curable coating without damaging the anti-reflective or mirror coating. Another method that includes providing a non-pure polycarbonate lens having a first side, a second side, and a first coating on the first side; depositing a heat-curable coating on the second side of the lens; and heating the heat-curable coating without damaging the first coating. Other methods are also disclosed.
