Abstract
A method for mass manufacturing of eye glasses includes steps of measuring the interpupillary distance of each eye; measuring the refractive error of each eye with a hand-held auto refractor; selecting a lens blank for each eye from among a stock of lenses; cutting a lens blank for each eye; and mounting the cut lens blanks onto a standardized eyeglasses frame.
Claims
AMENDED CLAIMS [received by the International Bureau on 18 November 2004 (18.11.04); original claims 1-15 replaced by new claims 1-15 (2 pages).]
1. A method of fabricating eye glasses comprising the steps of: measuring the interpupillary distance of each eye; measuring the refractive error of each eye with a hand-held auto refractor; selecting a proper lens blank for each eye from among a stock of lenses; cutting across and removing a portion of a lens for each eye along a line segment; and after cutting the lenses, mounting the cui lenses onto an eyeglasses frame, said lenses having a portion removed therefrom by said step of cutting. 1 The method according to claim 1 , f urther oompπaiπg the step of applying a bifocal segment to both of the lenses.
3. The method according to claim 2, wherein the bifocal segment is applied to the lenses by use of capillary attraction.
4. The method according In Haim ">, wl ±rcϊn he bifocal e≤gment > applied to the lenses with glue.
5. The method according claim 2, wherein the bifocal segment is applied to the lenses with transfer tape.
6. A method as defined in claim I , wherein the interpupillary distance is measured with a simple P.D. rule, 7. A method as defined in claim ) , wherein the lenses are mounted onto the frame with glue.
8, The method according to claim 1 , wherein the bifocal segment is applied to the lenses with transfer tape.
9. A method as defined in claim 7, wherein the glue is a quick-setting glue,
9
10. A method as defined in claim I , wherein the lenses are mounted onto the frame with adhesive.
1 1, A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the lenses are cut in a miter box. 12. A method as defined in claim 1 , wherein the refractive error of each eye is measured with a hand-held autor fπictor. i j. A metno as αeπneα in claim i , wuereiπ me lenses are marKeα witn a protractor prior to cutting.
14. A method as defined in claim 13, wherein the markings on the lenses are cleaned off after the step of cutting the lens,
15, A method of fabricating eye glasses comprising the steps of: measuring the interpupillary distance of each eye; measuring the refractive error of each eye with a hand-held auto refractor; selecting a proper lens blank for each eye from among a stock of lenses, each lens having a prescribed axis; aligning a prescribed axis on a protractor; marking a line across the lens at the I HO e ree line using a protractor; matching the line marked across the lens to a mark in a miter box; sawing off a portion of a lens for each eye in the miter box; and mounting the cut lenses onto an eyeglasses frame.
