Abstract:
A method and coating used to prepare a photo chromically-enabled bifocal.ophthalmic lens. The method and equipment includes injection molding a single vision lens (10e), for example, from polycarbonate. The clamp opens vertically and the top insert (20) is exchanged for a bifocal mold (30) having a base curve similar to the single vision lens. The thermos et coating includes compounds from several acrylate classes, and is applied to the single vision lens. The coating may include a photochromic dye. The coating is also formulated to receive a photochromic solution through an imbibition process.

Abstract:
The surface of an ophthalmic lens is polished by applying a layer of resin with a surface roughness 30-800 Ra A process for finishing the surface of a prescribed ophthalmic lens by applying a surface layer of resin of thickness 30 to 800 Ra, where Ra = the arithmetical average surface roughness, to confer a polished surface. An Independent claim is included for equipment to provide the surface finish comprising a resin applicator, which comprises a support (1001) in which the lens can be place and rotated and an arm (1003) carrying a nozzle (1002) which provides resin at a low pressure and can be moved vertically and horizontally with respect to the support (1001)
