Use of random copolyester as primary coating deposited on surface of organic glass substrate of ophthalmic lens, to enhance impact resistance of lens

摘要

Ophthalmic lens comprises organic glass substrate A having main front and rear faces, with at least one primer impact-resistant layer B deposited on at least one of substrate A faces, and comprising copolymer or mixture of copolymers selected from statistic copolymers; and at least one layer of anti-abrasion coating C deposited on layer B. Ophthalmic lens comprises organic glass substrate A having main front and rear faces, with at least one primer impact-resistant layer B deposited on at least one of substrate A faces, and comprising copolymer or mixture of copolymers selected from statistic copolymers of 3-10(preferably 3-6)C alkyl acrylate (a) and 1-2C alkyl methacrylate (b); and at least one layer of anti-abrasion coating C deposited on layer B. Layer B contains no photochromic agent with nucleus of formula (I), and preferably no photochromic agent at all. Layer B can be deposited on main rear face of A, or on each of both main faces, and has thickness 0.1-2.5 microns. Additional anti-reflection layer E can be deposited on anti-abrasion coat layer C. Organic substrate A has preferably negative optical power and thickness in center 0.7-1.2 mm. Independent claims are also included for: (1) the process of increasing of impact resistance of ophthalmic lens in which at least one of main faces of substrate A is coated with primary impact resistant layer B of composition as claimed, which is then coated with anti-abrasion layer C of composition as described below; and (2) ophthalmic lens as claimed, where statistic copolymer of A is a copolymer of butyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate with photochromic property.
