Abstract: A corrective wraparound lens is provided for a wearer where the wraparound lens has a non-corrective lens element and a corrective lens element where the curvature of the non-corrective lens element is different from the curvature of the corrective lens element. Such lens has the ability to correct the defect in eyesight while capable of contouring to the face of the wearer thus able to protect the face of the wearer. In addition, a method to correct defect in eye is provided using a corrective wraparound lens for a wearer comprising a non-corrective lens element and a corrective lens element wherein a first curvature of said non-corrective lens element is different than a second curvature of said corrective lens element.

Abstract: A curved circularly polarized lens is used in a passive 3D system to view 3D multimedia. The lens is created in an advanced delicate process whereby two lens pieces are combined with a special glue and molded to a specific conformation. This unique method of production of curved circularly polarized lenses retains the molecular arrangement of the lens, reduces or eliminates optical distortion and physical warping, and eliminates movement between the lens layers.
