Abstract: A multifocal lens has an outer surface and an inner surface. The outer surface has at least farsighted region and nearsighted region. The outer surface has an outer surface TC equal to 180 degrees. A thickness of the lens varies from the farsighted region to the nearsighted region in accordance with the outer surface TC. For example, the thickness of the lens increases from the farsighted region to the nearsighted region in accordance with the outer surface TC. The thickness of the lens is a constant in the farsighted region. As a result, it is possible to enlarge the nearsighted region an to prevent distortion in each edge of the lens.

Abstract: This invention prevents distortion in a portion area for farness in a multifocal lens. Therefore, the multifocal lens comprises a portion area for farness 12 molded so as to have a first curvature radius, and a portion area for nearness 13 molded so as to have a second curvature radius shorter than the first curvature radius, and a side portion prescribing an edge portion of the lens has a predetermined thickness irrespective of the portion area for farness and the portion area for nearness. For example, the thickness of the side portion is set to be entirely equal in the portion area for farness and the portion area for nearness by progressively changing the first curvature radius toward the side portion of the lens. Thus, distortion can be prevented in the portion area for farness. Further, if the thickness of the lens side portion is changed in accordance with the direction of a lens axial angle, it is possible to prevent distortion in the portion area for farness and cope with astigmatism.
