Definitions
- the present invention relates to a progressive power lens.
- Progressive power lenses have been developed as spectacle lenses used to correct vision such as presbyopia.
- a region (distance portion) having a refractive power for far vision from the top to the center of the lens and a region having a refractive power for near vision under the lens (Near part) and a region (intermediate part) for smoothly connecting the far part and the near part having different refractive powers are provided.
- This intermediate portion is a region where the refractive power continuously changes from the refractive power of the distance portion to the refractive power of the near portion.
- Patent Document 1 the surface refractive power in the horizontal direction is made larger on the object side surface of the progressive power lens than in the vertical direction. By doing so, even if the line of sight moves in the horizontal direction, the fluctuation of the angle at which the line of sight passes through the lens is suppressed. As a result, it is described that since the various aberrations of the image seen through the lens are reduced, the shaking of the image is improved. Further, as an attempt to reduce the shaking and distortion of the image, for example, a progressive power lens disclosed in Patent Document 2 is exemplified.
- Patent Document 2 attention is paid to the arrangement of the lens surface of the progressive-power lens.
- a progressive-refractive surface exhibiting a progressive-refractive action is arranged on the object-side surface (outer surface).
- a so-called inner surface progressive addition lens is disclosed which is disposed on the eyeball side surface (inner surface) and the object side surface is a spherical surface.
- a progressive refractive surface (a surface where the curvature changes) in which regions having different refractive power (distance portion, near portion, etc.) are formed is used as an inner surface, and a region having a constant refractive power is formed.
- the “shape factor” which is one of the factors that determine the magnification of the spectacle lens, is made constant. The resulting magnification difference is reduced.
- the magnification (SM) of the spectacle lens is expressed by the following formula 1 using a shape factor (Ms) and a power factor (Mp).
- Ms Ms ⁇ Mp Equation 1
- Ms is represented by the following formula 2
- Mp is represented by the following formula 3.
- D1 is the base curve of the object-side surface 200
- t is the thickness of the lens center
- n is the refractive index of the lens
- L is the apex (inner vertex) of the eyeball-side surface 300 to the eyeball E (strictly the corneal vertex).
- P indicates the frequency at the inner vertex.
- the magnification of the spectacle lens varies depending on the shape factor and the power factor.
- D1 in the shape factor is a base curve of the object-side surface, so that if the object-side surface is a progressive refractive surface, the distance portion and the near portion have refractive power, That is, since the base curves are different, D1 does not become constant and changes. Therefore, the shape factor varies.
- P shown in the above equation 3 is uniquely determined by the power (distance power, near power, addition power, etc.) added to the lens. Therefore, P can be set freely. Can not. *

And is not a diagram illustrating the refractive power distribution of the object-side surface 2 and is not a diagram illustrating the refractive power distribution of the eyeball-side surface 3.
- the object-side surface 2 and the eyeball-side surface 3 which are lens surfaces constituting the progressive-power lens according to this embodiment will be described.
- FIG. 2 is a plan view of the surface 2 on the object side.
- the direction corresponding to the vertical direction of the lens is taken as the Y axis, and the horizontal direction of the lens is shown.
- the direction to do is the X axis.
- the thickness direction of the lens 1 is taken as the Z axis.
- the Z axis is an axis perpendicular to both the X axis and the Y axis, and is an axis perpendicular to the paper surface in FIG.
- FIG. 2 is a diagram in which the object-side surface 2 viewed from the Z-axis direction is projected onto the XY plane. Therefore, the object-side surface 2 can be expressed using coordinates (x, y, z), and the coordinates in the Z-axis direction are set according to the refractive power distribution of the object-side surface.
- the design center is set for the object-side surface 2, and in this embodiment, the vertex (pole) of the object-side surface 2 that is the intersection of the Z-axis and the object-side surface 2 in FIG. Design centered.
- the design center is projected on the XY plane and coincides with the intersection of the X axis and the Y axis.
- the object-side surface 2 is formed as a rotationally symmetric surface having the design center (intersection of the X axis and the Y axis) as the rotation center O.
- the design center that is, the rotation center O coincides with the geometric center of the object-side surface 2, but does not necessarily coincide.
- the design center (rotation center O) is preferably present within a circle having a radius of 5.0 mm from the geometric center.
- the object-side surface 2 is concentrically divided into three regions (first stable region 20, curvature changing region 21, and second stable region 22). In other words, three regions that are rotationally symmetric with respect to the rotation center O are formed. Each region is connected smoothly and constitutes one continuous surface.
- the object-side surface 2 may be divided into two regions: a first stable region 20 and a concentric region obtained by combining the curvature change region 21 and the second stable region 22.
- region 22 is comprised by the rotationally symmetric aspherical area
- the first stable region 20 is a region composed of a plane including the rotation center O that is the design center.
- the first stable region is a region in which the PV value of the average surface refractive power of the first stable region is controlled to a range of 0.12D (diopter) or less.
- the PV value is a value representing surface accuracy and is defined as a difference between the maximum value and the minimum value of the average surface refractive power within the effective range.
- the surface accuracy of the spherical lens is very small as the amount of change in the average surface power in consideration of the fact that the average surface power is within ⁇ 0.06D within the range of 40 ⁇ in the ISO standard. It can be said that a manufacturing error in forming the object side surface at the time of manufacturing the lens is shown. In other words, it can be said that the first stable region 20 is constituted by a spherical surface having the above manufacturing error.
- the first stable region is defined as a region where the curvature c 0 in a given direction is constant, that is, a spherical surface, but “curvature c 0 is constant” means the average surface refractive power. Is synonymous with being controlled within the above range. Therefore, the first stable region in the present embodiment is not a spherical surface in the theoretical sense, but a substantial spherical surface.
- FIG. 3 shows changes in curvature in the meridian direction and the circumferential direction shown in FIG. 2 on the object side surface. As is apparent from FIG.
- the curvature in the first stable region, is the same and constant in the meridian direction and the circumferential direction, and the change in the curvature c 0 is extremely small.
- the value of the curvature c 0 of the first stable region may be determined according to the prescription or the like of the wearer.
- the spherical surface from the rotation center O to the radius r 0 is the first stable region 20.
- the coordinate in the Z-axis direction can be expressed as the following Expression 4 using the curvature c 0 of the first stable region.
- r is represented by the following formula 5 using coordinates (x, y) on the XY plane.
- the radius r 0 of the first stable region may be determined according to the wearer's prescription or the like, but in this embodiment, for example, r 0 is about 10 mm.
- the curvature changing region 21 is an annular region that is disposed outside the first stable region 20 so as to surround the first stable region 20 and has a radius r 0 to r 1 .
- the coordinates in the Z-axis direction can be expressed as in the following Equation 6.
- a i is an aspheric coefficient.
- the curvature change region 21 in the curvature change region 21, as shown in FIG. 3, the curvature c 1m in the meridian direction decreases monotonously from c 0 toward the outside of the surface 2 on the object side from the rotation center O. At this time, preferably, the curvature c 1c in the circumferential direction also decreases monotonously from c 0 .
- the curvature change region 21 is a region where the refractive power monotonously decreases in both the meridian direction and the circumferential direction of the object-side surface 2.
- the curvature change region 21 is formed of a smooth curved surface, for example, when the curvature in the meridian direction is changed, the curvature in the circumferential direction also changes in order to maintain the curved surface. Although details will be described later, image warping and distortion can be reduced by decreasing the curvature c 1m in the meridian direction and the curvature c 1c in the circumferential direction from c 0 . As a result of the above setting, the curvature change region 21 in the present embodiment satisfies the following condition as an example.
- the meridian direction curvature c 1m is smaller than the circumferential curvature c 1c .
- the aspect ratio of the image can be improved by doing so.
- curvature change region 21 is a region where the refractive power monotonously decreases
- a progressive element for realizing the progressive refraction action provided by the progressive power lens according to the present embodiment is arranged in the curvature change region 21. Will be.
- the first stable region 20 having a constant curvature c 0 is disposed at the design center of the object-side surface 2, and the meridian-direction curvature c 1m and the circumferential curvature c 1c are on the object side.
- a curvature change region having a decreasing relationship toward the outside of the surface is disposed.
- the object-side surface 2 may be configured by the first stable region 20 and the curvature change region 21 described above. However, in the present embodiment, the object-side surface 2 has a curvature outside the curvature change region 21. A second stable region 22 is further provided so as to surround the change region 21. Second stable region, as shown in FIG. 2, the radius r is a region of r 1 greater than circular. Also, the coordinates in the Z-axis direction can be expressed as the following Expression 7. However, c 1 , r 2 and z 1 are expressed using the following formulas 8 to 13.
- the second stable region is a region in which the PV value of the mean surface refractive power in the meridian direction is controlled to a range of 0.25D or less. This range is larger than the range of the change amount of the average surface refractive power in the first stable region 20. That is, for the average surface refractive power in the meridian direction of the second stable region, the range of the manufacturing error is estimated wider than the average surface refractive power of the first stable region 20. Therefore, the amount of change in average surface power in the meridian direction may be the same as the amount of change in average surface power in the first stable region, and the average surface power in the above range from the viewpoint of manufacturing. The amount of change may be intentionally controlled.
- the range of the change amount of the average surface power in the meridian direction is larger than the range of the change amount of the average surface power in the first stable region, the range of the change amount of the average surface power in the meridian direction is within the manufacturing error. is there.
- the PV value of the average surface power in the second stable region is within the above range, it is defined that the average surface power is substantially constant. Therefore, as in the first stable region, “the curvature c 2m in the meridian direction is substantially constant” is synonymous with the change in the average surface refractive power being controlled within the above range.
- the second stable region 22 does not become a spherical surface.
- the object-side surface including the second stable region is formed as a rotationally symmetric surface with respect to the design center, so that processing is easy when processing while rotating the lens. It becomes.
- the curvature change region and the second stable region are connected smoothly (continuously), the magnitude relationship between the curvature c 1m in the meridian direction and the curvature c 1c in the circumferential direction in the curvature change region is This is also reflected in the stable region. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, the curvature c 2m in the meridian direction at the same position is smaller than the curvature c 2c in the circumferential direction. Therefore, also in the second stable region, a state in which the curvature c 2m in the meridian direction is smaller than the curvature c 2c in the circumferential direction is maintained. As a result, the aspect ratio of the image can be improved as in the curvature change region.
- the surface on the eyeball side is not particularly limited as long as the eyeball side surface is combined with the object side surface so as to provide a predetermined progressive refraction effect on the transmitted image of the lens.
- the surface on the eyeball side has a surface refractive power change that cancels a change in the surface refractive power of the curvature change region of the object side surface, and a progressive element for providing a progressive refractive action is arranged. Yes.
- the object-side surface and the eyeball-side surface described above are simply lens surfaces, and by themselves, a progressive refraction action that realizes the functions of the distance portion, the near portion, and the intermediate portion cannot be obtained.
- a progressive refraction action is brought about on the transmitted image of the lens, and a progressive refraction action is brought about on the retina of the wearer of the lens. It forms as an image.
- the object-side surface and the eyeball-side surface having the above-described configuration are combined to cause a progressive refraction action, resulting in a magnification difference between the distance portion and the near portion.
- Image shaking and distortion can be reduced.
- the power of the near portion is set by adding a predetermined power to the power of the distance portion. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4B, the image seen through the intermediate portion and the near portion appears larger than the image seen through the distance portion. Therefore, when the progressive power lens is worn as a spectacle lens, Swaying and distortion occurs.
- the vicinity of the region corresponding to the distance portion of the progressive addition lens obtained by combining the object side surface and the eyeball side surface is disposed so as to face the first stable region,
- the vicinity of the region corresponding to the intermediate portion and the near portion of the lens is arranged to face the curvature change region (and the second stable region as necessary).
- the curvatures (c 1m , c 1c , c 2m , c 2c ) in the curvature change region and the second stable region are smaller than the curvature c 0 in the first stable region. Therefore, the difference between the power in the first stable region and the power in the curvature change region and the second stable region can cancel the increase in power in the intermediate portion and the near portion with respect to the power in the distance portion. As a result, the difference in magnification between the distance portion and the near portion is reduced, and image shake and distortion can be reduced.
- the region corresponding to the distance portion of the progressive-power lens mainly corresponds to the first stable region on the object side surface.
- the power change curvature change
- the distance power measurement point which is a reference point for measuring the distance power, is located (corresponding) within the first stable region of the object side surface. This is because, if the distance power measurement point corresponds to the first stable region, the distance power can be measured in a region where the power change is small, which is preferable because high-accuracy measurement is possible.
- the region corresponding to the intermediate portion and the region corresponding to the near portion mainly correspond to the curvature change region and the second stable region of the object side surface.
- the refractive power continuously changes, and the change in refractive power in the near portion is larger than the change in refractive power in the far portion, so at least of the curvature in the meridian direction and the curvature in the circumferential direction.
- the curvature changing region and the second stable region in which one side is changed correspond to these regions.
- the near vision power measurement point which is a reference point for measuring the near vision power is located (corresponding) within the curvature changing region or the second stable region of the object side surface. This is because it is preferable that the near-field power measurement point corresponds to the curvature change region or the second stable region because the effect of the curvature change is obtained in the intermediate portion and the near portion.
- the progressive-power lens according to this embodiment can improve the aspect ratio of the image by combining the object-side surface and the eyeball-side surface having the above-described configuration. Since the progressive-power lens according to the present embodiment is for far vision, the distance power is positive. Then, when the lens is used as a spectacle lens, the near portion is disposed below the lens with respect to the far portion disposed near the center of the lens. In the near part, the object appears to be stretched vertically. When the surface on the object side is constituted by a spherical surface of +3.00 D (diopter), as shown in FIG. 5, the aspect ratio at the near portion of the spectacle lens 1a is greatly deviated from 1, which is far from the near portion. The aspect ratio of the image is different from that of the use part.
- the curvature c 1m in the meridian direction is made smaller than the curvature c 1c in the circumferential direction. Since the curvature change region is configured by a smooth curved surface, when the curvature in the meridian direction becomes small, the curvature in the circumferential direction also becomes small in order to maintain the curved surface. However, the curvature c 1c in the circumferential direction is not as small as the curvature c 1m in the meridian direction, and there is a difference between the curvature c 1m in the meridian direction and the curvature c 1c in the circumferential direction in the curvature change region.
- the object When viewed through an area corresponding to the curvature change area in a state where such a difference in curvature occurs, the object appears to be stretched in the circumferential direction.
- the curvature in the meridian direction in the curvature change region corresponds to the curvature in the vertical direction of the near portion
- the curvature in the circumferential direction in the curvature change region corresponds to the curvature in the horizontal direction of the near portion.
- the curvature change region and the second stable region in the present embodiment are circular regions that are rotationally symmetric with respect to the rotation center O, the curvature change region and the second stable region also correspond above the distance portion.
- a curvature distribution that cancels the curvature change in the curvature change region and the second stable region corresponding to above the distance portion may be set on the eyeball side surface.
- the method for manufacturing a progressive-power lens according to this embodiment is mainly divided into a lens design step S1 and a lens processing step S2.
- lens design process S1 In the lens design step S1, spectacles specifications such as lens information and prescription information are acquired (spectacles specification acquisition step S11), and information necessary for designing a progressive-power lens among information included in spectacles specifications (distance use)
- the progressive power lens according to the present embodiment is designed based on the power, the near power, the addition power, and the like.
- the progressive refractive power distribution design step S12, the object side surface design step S13, and the eyeball side surface design step S14 included in the lens design step S1 will be specifically described.
- the same refractive power distribution as that of the designed progressive power lens is set only on the inner surface (surface located on the eyeball side). That is, the inner surface is configured by a progressive refractive surface that provides the same progressive refractive action as the progressive power lens to be designed, and the outer surface (surface located on the object side) is configured by a spherical surface. That is, a progressive element that realizes progressive refraction is set only on the inner surface.
- a known method may be used as a method for designing such a progressive power distribution.
- the astigmatism is set to be the smallest on the main line of sight, and then the refractive power at each position of the surface is set according to the desired progressive refracting surface, and these are smoothly Connect to form progressive refractive surface.
- the progressive refractive surface may be corrected using a ray tracing method or the like.
- the object-side surface preset as a spherical surface is corrected from the obtained refractive power distribution of the inner surface and the spherical power of the outer surface, and the object side
- the center of rotation, the curvature and diameter of the first stable region, the curvature and diameter of the curvature changing region, and the curvature and diameter of the second stable region are set on the surface.
- the curvature of the first stable region may be the same as the curvature of the outer surface.
- the first stable region, the curvature changing region, and the second stable region that are rotationally symmetric with respect to the center of rotation are set on the object side surface.
- the progressive-power lens according to this embodiment is designed. Subsequently, a progressive power lens is manufactured based on the obtained design data of the object side surface and the eyeball side surface.
- the lens processing step S2 includes at least a block step S21, a grinding step S22, and a polishing step S23.
- a base material (semi-finish lens) having an optimal base curve is prepared based on the design data of the object side surface and the eyeball side surface.
- a base material having the same base curve as the curvature of the first stable region on the object side surface may be prepared.
- the base material is set in a processing device such as a grinding device, design data is input to the processing device, and the base material is processed so as to have a refractive power distribution set in the design data.
- the substrate may be processed by a known method. For example, the surface of the substrate is ground using a grinding device to form an optical surface, and then polished using a polishing device.
- the prepared base material is fixed to the lens holder.
- the lens holder is composed of a yatoy that becomes the base of the base material and a low melting point alloy for fixing the yato to the base material.
- the toy is fixed to the mounting base, and a circular block ring is arranged around the toy.
- the base material is placed on the block ring so that the convex surface of the base material is supported by the block ring.
- the toy and the base material are not in contact with each other, and a space is formed between the toy, the mounting base, the block ring, and the base material.
- the yatoy and the base material can be fixed, and the base material held by the lens holder is removed from the mounting base and the block ring. Can be obtained.
- the height of the block ring used to fix the yatoi and the base material is usually fixed, and there are several different diameters and heights depending on the size of the base material to be processed and the base curve. Or be prepared.
- the double-sided progressive addition lens generally has both rotationally asymmetric surfaces.
- a rotationally asymmetric progressive surface is disposed on the eyeball side surface, and the object-side surface has a rotationally asymmetric shape with different curvatures in the vertical and horizontal directions.
- the surface is arranged. Therefore, even if the lens position has the same diameter, the Z-axis coordinates, that is, the heights are different.
- a lens having such a surface is placed on a block ring having a constant height, it is supported only by a part of the block ring. As a result, the rattling of the lens tends to occur on the block ring, and it tends to shift. For this reason, in order to support such a rotationally asymmetric surface, a dedicated block ring is required, which increases costs.
- the progressive-power lens according to this embodiment in which the object-side surface is formed in rotational symmetry, the Z-axis coordinates are the same as long as the lens position has the same diameter. Even when placed on the ring, the lens is supported by the entire block ring. Therefore, since the progressive power lens according to the present embodiment can use a normal block ring, it can be manufactured at a low cost while being a double-sided progressive power lens.
- the processed outer surface is fixed and the inner surface is processed, so that the processing position of the inner surface with respect to the fixed position of the outer surface may deviate from the position that should be supported in design. is there. Since the block ring is circular, this deviation is mainly a rotational deviation that occurs clockwise or counterclockwise around the vicinity of the design center of the lens.
- the refractive power distribution of the final lens formed by combining one surface and the other surface changes from the designed refractive power distribution. Therefore, a desired refractive power distribution cannot be obtained.
- the object-side surface is rotationally symmetrical. Since the refractive power at the position and the refractive power at the position after the deviation are the same, the deviation of the power does not occur in the final lens obtained by the combination, and the deviation of the astigmatic axis can also be suppressed.
- a lens holder for holding the base material is installed in a grinding apparatus, and grinding is performed to form an optical surface (grinding step S22).
- the lens holder for holding the substrate is removed from the grinding apparatus and installed in the polishing apparatus to perform the polishing process (polishing step S23).
- processing is performed while rotating the substrate, and therefore processing of a surface formed from a rotationally symmetric region is easy. Therefore, although the progressive power lens according to the present embodiment has progressive elements on both surfaces of the lens, the object side surface can be easily processed as compared with a normal double-sided progressive power lens. Yield can be improved.
- surface treatment such as coating and target lens shape processing may be performed to manufacture a spectacle lens.
- the progressive-power lens according to this embodiment is a double-sided progressive-power lens in which progressive elements are set on both the object-side surface and the eyeball-side surface, but the object-side surface is a rotationally symmetric surface.
- the manufacturing is easy while maintaining the optical performance.
- the lens height (Z-axis coordinate) is the same at the lens position showing the same diameter. Therefore, when a lens is placed on a normal block ring having a constant height and the surface is supported, the surface is supported by the entire block ring, so that the backlash does not occur and the lens shifts when fixed. It is difficult to occur, and the combined position accuracy between the object-side surface and the eyeball-side surface can be ensured.
- the positional deviation that occurs when the lens is fixed to the lens holder is a rotational deviation that occurs clockwise or counterclockwise around the vicinity of the design center of the lens.
- the object-side surface of the progressive-power lens according to the present embodiment is composed of a rotationally symmetric surface centered around the design center. Therefore, even when a rotational deviation occurs when fixing the lens, the frequency does not change, and even when the astigmatic axis deviation occurs, the deviation can be suppressed to a minimum. it can.
- the inner surface progressive lens in which the progressive surface realizing the progressive refraction action is arranged on the eyeball side surface (inner surface) located on the eyeball side and the object side surface (outer surface) located on the object side is spherical,
- the shape factor constant among the two factors that define the lens magnification for use, fluctuations in the shape factor are eliminated, and image shake and distortion are reduced.
- the object-side surface is a spherical surface, for example, when the power difference between the distance portion and the near portion is large, the reduction of image shaking and distortion is insufficient.
- the object-side surface is not composed of only a spherical surface, but the first stable region (substantially spherical surface) in which the curvature in an arbitrary direction can be considered to be constant is the object-side surface. And a composite surface in which an aspherical region in which the curvature in the meridian direction is reduced from the curvature of the first stable region is disposed outside.
- a stable power is achieved in the lens region (mainly the distance portion) corresponding to the first stable region, and the distance portion and the near portion are A part of the frequency difference is canceled by the frequency difference generated on the object side surface, and the magnification difference between the distance portion and the near portion due to the power difference between the distance portion and the near portion can be reduced.
- the region for realizing the function as the distance portion in the progressive-power lens is stabilized in the distance portion so that the first stable region on the object side surface corresponds to the region.
- the frequency is secured.
- the curvature change region and the second stable region of the object side surface correspond to the region that realizes the functions of the intermediate portion and the near portion in the progressive-power lens.
- the curvature changing region is disposed outside the first stable region, and the curvature in the meridian direction and the curvature in the circumferential direction decrease from the curvature of the first stable region toward the outside of the lens. For this reason, the curvature change region has an effect of making the image smaller than the first stable region.
- the frequency increases from the near portion to the far portion. Therefore, a part of the frequency difference between the distance portion and the near portion is canceled, and the magnification difference between the distance portion and the near portion can be reduced.
- the progressive-power lens according to this embodiment has an effect of improving the aspect ratio of the image. That is, in the plus lens for hyperopia, the image is stretched vertically in the near portion located below the lens than in the far portion located near the center of the lens. As a result, the aspect ratio of the image greatly deviates from 1 in the near portion.
- the curvature in the meridian direction is controlled to be smaller than the curvature in the circumferential direction in the curvature change region.
- region corresponding to a near part becomes a curvature change area
- the meridian direction in the curvature change region corresponds to the vertical direction in the near portion
- the circumferential direction in the curvature change region corresponds to the horizontal direction in the near portion.
- the curvature is smaller in the vertical direction than in the horizontal direction due to the presence of the curvature change region, so that an effect of stretching the image horizontally is produced. Then, this effect cancels the effect of vertically stretching the image, and the aspect ratio of the image can be brought close to 1, and a comfortable visual field with less discomfort can be realized.
- the curvature in at least the meridian direction is smaller than the curvature of the first stable region.
- the magnification difference between the portion and the near portion can be reduced.
- the curvature in the meridian direction of the second stable region corresponds to the curvature at the outer peripheral portion of the curvature changing region, and the amount of change is controlled within a specific range.
- the object-side surface and the eyeball-side surface are not convex, which facilitates manufacturing.
- the curvature in the meridian direction is smaller than the curvature in the circumferential direction, the effect of improving the aspect ratio of the image can be obtained in the second stable region as in the curvature changing region.
- the object-side surface can be Surface processing can be easily performed.
- the refractive power for realizing the progressive refraction action is set on the surface on the eyeball side, but the refractive power for realizing the progressive refraction action is set on the eyeball side surface for correcting astigmatism. It may be configured to have a refractive power distribution to which is added.
- the shape of the first stable region is a circle in the projection view on the XY plane, but may be other than a circle as long as it is rotationally symmetric in the projection view.
- an ellipse may be used.
- the curvature change region and the second stable region are each disposed as one region on the object side surface, but the curvature change region and the second stable region are disposed at rotationally symmetric positions. If so, each may be arranged as a plurality of regions.
- the distance power measurement point is located in the first stable region and the near power measurement point is located in the curvature change region or the second stability region, but the distance power measurement point is the curvature. It may be located in the change region or the second stable region, and the near-field power measurement point may be located in the first stable region. With such an arrangement, it is possible to obtain an effect of improving the aspect ratio of the curvature change in the intermediate portion and the distance portion.
- Example 1 In Example 1, a progressive-power lens that achieves a progressive refraction action with a distance power of +4.00 D (diopter) and an addition power of 2.00 D (diopter) was designed.
- the object side surface was set as follows.

3.本実施形態の効果
4.変形例
本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズ1は、図1(a)に示すように、物体側に位置する面(物体側の面2)と、眼球E側に位置する面(眼球側の面3)と、が組み合わされて構成されるレンズである。図1(b)は、本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズ1の遠用部、近用部および中間部の配置を示す図である。本実施形態では、図1(b)に示す遠用部等の機能をもたらすための累進屈折作用を実現する累進要素が物体側の面と眼球側の面との両面に配置されており、本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズ1は両面累進屈折力レンズである。
図2は、物体側の面2の平面図を示しており、累進屈折力レンズを眼鏡用レンズとして装用した場合に、レンズの垂直方向に相当する方向をY軸とし、レンズの水平方向に相当する方向をX軸としている。さらに、図1(a)に示すように、レンズ1の厚み方向をZ軸としている。Z軸は、X軸およびY軸の両方に垂直な軸であり、図2においては、紙面に垂直な軸となっている。換言すれば、図2は、Z軸方向から見た物体側の面2をXY平面上に投影した図である。したがって、物体側の面2は、座標(x,y,z)を用いて表すことができ、Z軸方向の座標は、物体側の面の屈折力分布に応じて設定される。
また、物体側の面2を、第一安定領域20と、曲率変化領域21と第二安定領域22とを合わせた同心円状の領域と、の2つの領域に分けて考えてもよい。なお、曲率変化領域21と第二安定領域22を合わせた領域は、回転対称な非球面領域23により構成されているともいえる。
第1安定領域20は、設計中心である回転中心Oを含む面から構成される領域である。本実施形態では、第1安定領域は、第1安定領域の平均面屈折力のPV値が0.12D(ディオプター)以下の範囲に制御された領域である。なお、PV値は、面精度を表す値であり、有効範囲内での平均面屈折力の最大値と最小値との差と定義される。球面レンズの面精度は、ISO規格では、40Φの範囲内で平均面屈折力が±0.06D以内であることを考慮すると、上記の範囲は、平均面屈折力の変化量としては非常に小さく、レンズ製造時に物体側の面を形成する際の製造誤差を示しているということができる。換言すれば、第1安定領域20は、上記の製造誤差を有する球面により構成されているということができる。
ただし、rはXY平面上の座標(x,y)を用いて下記の式5で表される。
第1安定領域の半径r0についても装用者の処方等に応じて決定すればよいが、本実施形態では、たとえば、r0は10mm程度である。
曲率変化領域21は、図2に示すように、第1安定領域20の外側に、第1安定領域20を取り囲むように配置され、半径r0からr1までの環状の領域である。また、Z軸方向の座標は下記の式6のように表すことができる。
ただし、aiは非球面係数である。
上記の設定の結果、本実施形態における曲率変化領域21は一例として以下の条件を満たす。
(条件1)
設計中心から物体側の面の外周に向かう経線方向の曲率が第1安定領域における経線方向の曲率より小さい。
(条件2)
経線方向に直交する方向の曲率である円周方向の曲率が第1安定領域における円周方向の曲率より小さい。
なお、条件1を満たせば自ずと条件2も満たされることになる。そのため、少なくとも条件1を満たすのが好適である。
また、回転中心Oから物体側の面2の外側に向かって単調に減少するのは、経線方向の曲率c1mおよび円周方向の曲率c1cの少なくともいずれかであっても構わない。
物体側の面2は、上述した第1安定領域20と曲率変化領域21とから構成されていてもよいが、本実施形態では、物体側の面2は、曲率変化領域21の外側に、曲率変化領域21を取り囲むように配置される第2安定領域22をさらに備えている。第2安定領域は、図2に示すように、半径rがr1より大きい環状の領域である。また、Z軸方向の座標は下記の式7のように表すことができる。
ただし、c1、r2およびz1は以下の式8~13を用いて表される。
眼球側の面は、物体側の面と組み合わされて、レンズの透過像に所定の累進屈折作用がもたらされるように構成されていれば特に制限されない。本実施形態では、眼球側の面は、物体側の面の曲率変化領域の面屈折力の変化を相殺する面屈折力変化を備えており、累進屈折作用をもたらすための累進要素が配置されている。
上述した物体側の面と眼球側の面とはそれぞれ単なるレンズ面であり、単独では、遠用部、近用部および中間部の機能を実現する累進屈折作用は得られない。物体側の面と眼球側の面とを組み合わせてレンズを得ることにより、当該レンズの透過像に累進屈折作用がもたらされ、当該レンズの装用者の網膜上において、累進屈折作用がもたらされた像として結像する。
次に、本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズの製造方法を、図6に示す工程図に基づき説明する。本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズの製造方法は、主に、レンズ設計工程S1と、レンズ加工工程S2と、に分けられる。
レンズ設計工程S1では、レンズ情報、処方情報等の眼鏡仕様を取得し(眼鏡仕様取得工程S11)、眼鏡仕様に含まれる情報のうち、累進屈折力レンズを設計するために必要な情報(遠用度数、近用度数、加入度数等)に基づき、本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズを設計する。以下、レンズ設計工程S1に含まれる累進屈折力分布設計工程S12、物体側面設計工程S13および眼球側面設計工程S14について具体的に説明する。
本工程では、本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズの設計に先立ち、設計される累進屈折力レンズと同じ屈折力分布を、内面(眼球側に位置する面)のみに設定する設計を行う。すなわち、内面が、設計される累進屈折力レンズと同じ累進屈折作用をもたらす累進屈折面により構成され、外面(物体側に位置する面)が球面で構成されるように設計する。すなわち、内面のみに累進屈折作用を実現する累進要素が設定されている。
本工程では、累進屈折力レンズを設計するために必要な情報に基づき、得られた内面の屈折力分布と外面の球面度数とから、球面として予め設定した物体側の面を補正し、物体側の面に、回転中心、第1安定領域の曲率および径、曲率変化領域の曲率および径、ならびに、第2安定領域の曲率および径を設定する。たとえば、第1安定領域の曲率は、外面の曲率と同じとすればよい。
本工程では、設計した物体側の面と、設計される累進屈折力レンズの透過屈折力分布と、から、物体側の面の曲率変化領域による面屈折力の変化を相殺するように眼球側の面の面屈折力変化を算出すればよい。眼球側の面を算出するにはベクトル演算等の公知の方法を用いればよい。
レンズ加工工程S2は、少なくとも、ブロック工程S21、研削工程S22および研磨工程S23を含む。レンズ加工工程S2では、まず、物体側の面および眼球側の面の設計データに基づいて、最適なベースカーブを有する基材(セミフィニッシュレンズ)を準備する。たとえば、物体側の面の第1安定領域の曲率と同じベースカーブを有する基材を準備すればよい。当該基材を研削装置等の加工装置に設置し、設計データを加工装置に入力して、設計データにおいて設定された屈折力の分布となるように、基材の加工を行う。基材の加工は公知の方法により行えばよく、たとえば、基材の表面を研削装置を用いて研削し光学面を形成した後、研磨装置を用いて研磨を行う。
本工程では、準備した基材をレンズ保持具に固定する。本実施形態では、レンズ保持具は、基材の土台となるヤトイと、ヤトイと基材とを固定するための低融点合金と、から構成される。ヤトイと基材とを固定する際には、まず、ヤトイを取付台に固定し、ヤトイの周囲に円形のブロックリングを配置する。そして、ブロックリングの上に基材を載置して、基材の凸面がブロックリングにより支持されるようにする。このとき、ヤトイと基材とは接触しておらず、ヤトイと取付台とブロックリングと基材との間に空間が形成されている。この空間に低融点合金を充填して固化させることによりヤトイと基材とを固定することができ、ヤトイと基材とを取付台およびブロックリングから取り外して、レンズ保持具に保持された基材を得ることができる。
続いて、基材を保持するレンズ保持具を、研削加工装置に設置して、研削加工を行い、光学面を形成する(研削工程S22)。研削加工後に、基材を保持するレンズ保持具を研削加工装置から取り外し、研磨加工装置に設置して、研磨加工を行う(研磨工程S23)。このような研削装置、研磨装置では、基材を回転させながら加工を行うため、回転対称な領域から構成されている面の加工は容易である。したがって、本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズは、レンズの両面に累進要素が設定されているが、通常の両面累進屈折力レンズに比べて、物体側の面の加工を容易に行うことができ、歩留まりも向上できる。その後、必要に応じて、コーティング等の表面処理および玉型加工を行い、眼鏡用レンズを製造してもよい。
本実施形態に係る累進屈折力レンズは、物体側の面と眼球側の面との両面に累進要素が設定された両面累進屈折力レンズでありながら、物体側の面を回転対称な面とすることにより、光学性能を維持しつつ、製造が容易である。
上述した実施形態では、眼球側の面には、累進屈折作用を実現するための屈折力が設定されているが、眼球側の面が、累進屈折作用を実現するための屈折力に乱視矯正用の屈折力が付加された屈折力分布を有するように構成されていてもよい。
実施例1では、遠用度数が+4.00D(ディオプター)であり、加入度数が2.00D(ディオプター)である累進屈折作用を実現する累進屈折力レンズを設計した。物体側の面は、以下のように設定した。第1安定領域は、曲率c0を9.441とし、XY平面上への投影図において半径が10mmの円とした。曲率変化領域は、経線方向の曲率c1mを9.441~6.425まで単調に減少させ、XY平面上への投影図において、半径が10~25mmの環状とした。第2安定領域は、経線方向の曲率c2mを6.425とし、XY平面上への投影図において、半径が25~35mmの環状とした。
比較例1では、実施例1と同様に、遠用度数が+4.00D(ディオプター)であり、加入度数が2.00D(ディオプター)である累進屈折力レンズであって、物体側の面には垂直方向の曲率と水平方向の曲率とが異なるアトーリック面が配置され、眼球側の面には累進面が配置された両面累進屈折力レンズを設計した。この両面累進屈折力レンズでは、物体側の面と眼球側の面とはどちらも回転非対称であった。また、実施例1と同様に、両面累進屈折力レンズについて、当該レンズの凸面を下にした場合のレンズの高さを測定した。結果を図7に示す。
実施例1において設定した累進屈折作用を示す累進面を設計し、この面を眼球側の面とし、物体側の面は曲率が9.063である球面で構成した内面累進屈折力レンズを設計した。この内面累進屈折力レンズに対して、実施例1と同様に、揺れ指数(IDs)、平均眼鏡倍率および近用部のアスペクト比を算出した。揺れ指数の結果を図8に、平均眼鏡倍率の結果を図9に、アスペクト比の結果を図10に示す。
『近方視用の度数をもつ近用部を有し、かつ、物体側の面と眼球側の面とが共に非球面であって累進要素を有する累進屈折力レンズであって、
物体側の面は回転対称な面でありかつ回転中心を含む第1安定領域を備えており、第1安定領域における平均面屈折力のPV値(Peak to Valley)が0.12D以内である、累進屈折力レンズ。』
