Abstract

The invention relates to a method for receiving or blocking optical lenses and especially lenses for glasses for other machining steps, such as the machining of a surface which is not finished and/or the machining of the edge of the lens. The inventive method consists of the following steps: the lens is arranged in a receiving device in such a manner that the surface whereon the lens should be received or blocked is placed on top; the receiving device whereon the lens is positioned relative to a block piece which is arranged on the surface of the lens which is to be blocked after positioning and against which the lens is maintained according to the following machining steps; a collar is arranged on the block piece which is provided with a transversal opening and on the lens in such a manner that a lateral and downwardly closed casting space is formed, said space being open towards the top; a casting material is introduced into the casting space from above through the transversal opening; the blocked lens is removed from the receiving device after solidification of the casting material.
