Abstract: A spectacle lens for a spectacle frame having a first spectacle lens area and a second spectacle lens area. The first spectacle lens area is more strongly colored than the second spectacle lens area. The spectacle lens is phototropic at least in the second spectacle lens area.

Abstract: A layer system includes at least one stack of successive multilayers, wherein each multilayer includes a first partial layer with a first optical thickness and a second partial layer with a second optical thickness that is different from the first optical thickness. The multilayer has optical characteristics that are specified depending on a parameter which is a function of a ratio of quotients of the optical thickness of a partial layer with higher refractive characteristics and the optical thickness of a partial layer with lower refractive characteristics of the respective multilayers, wherein the index i denotes the order of the successive multilayers in the stack. The product of a reflectivity of the stack of multilayers and the parameter is less than for an anti-reflection and/or anti-reflective effect of the stack of multilayers, or is greater than or equal to 1 for a mirroring. An optical element may include a layer system and a method for producing such a layer system.

Abstract: The invention relates to an edging pad for releasably connecting a material blank that is to be edged to a holder, wherein the edging pad has a polymeric carrier layer and adhesive coatings which are applied to both sides of the polymeric carrier layer, wherein one side of the polymeric carrier layer, which is to be connected to the holder, has an adhesive coating formed of a first adhesive, and the other side of the polymeric carrier layer, which is to be connected to the material blank, has an adhesive coating formed of a second and a third adhesive which are different from one another, such that the second adhesive provides adhesiveness to the material blank and the third adhesive is an adhesive which limits twisting and slippage of the polymeric carrier layer relative to the material blank, wherein the second adhesive and the third adhesive are applied to the other side of the polymeric carrier layer in separate regions.

Abstract: A photochromic synthetic resin (i.e., plastic) object characterized by a permanently increased contrast relative to the contrast of prior art photochromic synthetic resin objects, such that the photochromic synthetic resin object according to the invention exhibits improved contrast in the stationary states and in every intervening phase, including both darkening and lightening. The photochromic synthetic resin objects of the invention are particularly useful as lenses for eyeglasses, especially for sports glasses.
