An image display device for repairing a scratch or scratches on a surface or surfaces of a light transmitting member having an image display section such an extent that the presence of the scratch or scratches cannot be visually perceived at at least in a bright view distance in all directions, and in which device a liquid filler having a refractive index equivalent to or on the same order of that of the light transmitting member is locally filled only into an area of the scratch or scratches, and the filler is cured. By controlling an amount of the filler so that a difference in level between a surface of the light transmitting member and a surface of the filler is at least ±5.0 μm or less and that an angle defined between a surface of the filler and a surface of the light transmitting member is at least 45 degrees or less or preferably at least 10 degrees or less, it is possible to exhibit display quality to such a degree that the presence of the scratch or scratches cannot be recognized.
An image display device comprising a light transmitting member having an image display section, and wherein a scratch or scratches on inside and outside surfaces of the light transmitting member are locally filled with a filler, which has a refractive index equivalent to or on the same order of that of the light transmitting member, and a difference in level between a surface of the said light transmitting member and the surface of said filler is at least ±5.0 μm.
An image display device comprising a light transmitting member having an image display section, and wherein a scratch or scratches on inside and outside surfaces of the light transmitting member are locally filled with a filler, which has a refractive index equivalent to or on the same order of that of the light transmitting member, and wherein a scratch or scratches on the surface and the back surface of the light transmitting member are locally filled with a filler having a refractive index equal to that of the light transmitting member, and a ratio H/W of a difference (H) in level between a surface of the light transmitting member and a surface of the filler to a minimum width (W) of the filler is at least 0.1 or less.
An image display device comprising a light transmitting member having an image display section, and wherein a scratch or scratches on inside and outside surfaces of the light transmitting member are locally filled with a filler, which has a refractive index equivalent to or on the same order of that of the light transmitting member, and wherein an angle defined between a surface of the filler and a surface of the light transmitting member in an area where an edge of the filler contacts a surface of the light transmitting member is at least 45 degrees or less.
An image display device comprising a light transmitting member having an image display section, and wherein a scratch or scratches on inside and outside surfaces of the light transmitting member are locally filled with a filler, which has a refractive index equivalent to or on the same order of that of the light transmitting member, and wherein an angle defined between a surface of the filler and a surface of the light transmitting member in an area where an edge of the filler contacts a surface of the light transmitting member is at least 10 degrees or less.
An image display device comprising a light transmitting member having an image display section, a film of optical function, and an adhesive bonding layer, the film of optical function being arranged on the light transmitting member through the adhesive bonding layer, and wherein a scratch or scratches on a surface of the light transmitting member contacting the adhesive bonding layer is locally filled with a filler having a refractive index equivalent to or on the same order of that of the light transmitting member, and a ratio H/W of a difference in level (H) between a surface of the light transmitting member and a surface of the filler to a minimum width (W) of the filler is at least 0.1 or less.
