The first substrate has a first trench in the peripheral region, and the first trench has at least one sidewall. The second substrate is located opposite to the first substrate. The display medium is located between the first substrate and the second substrate. The sealant is located in the peripheral region between the first substrate and the second substrate. Specifically, the sealant is located in the first trench, and a distance between a sidewall of the sealant and the sidewall of the first trench ranges from about 0 um to about 700 um.

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.

Abstract: A 3-D stereoscopic viewing lens which the retarder film is made of a PVA film. A 3-D stereoscopic viewing lens having a linear polarized film, one or more lens substrate layers, and an epoxy layer. A process of making retarder film including mounting a PVA film to an assembly line; wetting, cleaning, and washing the PVA film through said assembly line; softening, expanding and stretching the PVA film's x-axis through said assembly line; adding gap filling agent to the PVA film; stretching the PVA film's y-axis through a width frame holder and as a result transforming the PVA film into a retarder film.

Abstract: Eyewear, and more particularly floating eyewear such as eyeglasses and/or sunglasses may include a frame, temples, and lenses wherein the frame and/or temples may be formed form the combination of a blowing agent and a polymer so as to render the eyewear floating. A method for making floating eyewear is also contemplated wherein a heat-activated blowing agent is dry-blended with a plastic resin to form a mixture which is loaded into a hopper coupled to a cylinder, after which the mixture is heated to a molten form, injected into a mold, cooled, and then later ejected from the mold.
