Abstract
A method for making a mold for forming a lens for single lens glasses having two focal axes is provided. The mold consists of a male mold and a female mold. The male mold is made from portions of two conventional male molds to provide a left half portion and a right half portion of a new male mold, each portion having a separate focal axis. Subsequently the left and the right half portions are jointed together to be used with a conventional female mold to produce a lens for single lens glasses having two focal axes.
Claims1
A method for making a mold for forming a lens of single lens glasses having two focal axes from molds for forming lenses of single lens glasses with a single focal axis, comprising the steps of:
- providing a first male mold and a corresponding female mold for forming a lens for single lens glasses;
- b. providing a second male mold for forming a lens for single lens glasses;
- c. positioning said first male mold in said female mold and rotating a centrally located focal axis of said first male mold in a first direction a predetermined distance relative to said female mold, said predetermined distance corresponding to approximately one half a person's pupillary distance;
- d. cutting out a first segment of said first male mold bounded by a horizontal side and a vertical center line of said female mold;
- e. positioning said second male mold in said female mold and rotating a centrally located focal axis of said first male mold in a second direction said predetermined distance relative to said female mold, said second direction being opposite said first direction;
- f. cutting out a second segment of said second male mold bounded by said horizontal side and said vertical center line of said female mold;
- g. affixing said first segment to said second segment to form a third male mold, said third male mold being insertable into said female mold for forming a lens of single lens glasses having a pair of focal axes spaced one for the other by a pupillary distance.
