Abstract

See full text

A method of forming an ophthalmic laminate lens, includes: forming a planar laminate by adhering a first polycarbonate layer to a first side of a thermoplastic elastomer layer, and adhering a second polycarbonate layer to a second side of the thermoplastic elastomer layer, the first polycarbonate layer having a thickness greater than 250 μm, the second polycarbonate layer having a thickness greater than 250 μm, and the thermoplastic elastomer layer having a thickness in a range of 15 μm to 150 μm; thermoforming the planar laminate into a curved laminate, the curve laminate having a pre-molding curvature; arranging the curved laminate in a mold; and molding, via the mold set at a predetermined temperature and a predetermined pressure, the curved laminate with a polymer melt into a curved lens.
