METHOD FOR THE SIMULTANEOUS MANUFACTURE OF OPHTHALMIC LENSES WITH DIFFERENT PARAMETERS ON THE SAME PRODUCTION LINE

摘要

There is described a method for the simultaneous manufacture of contact lenses having different lens parameters on the same production line, where a number of molds, each comprising male and female mold halves, are transported in sequential rows of and in each row in side by side configuration through a series of treatment stations, which are arranged sequentially along a production line, in which lenses of specific parameters are manufactured from a lens forming material. During manufacture each lens is associated with a lens identification code. There is also described a closed cycle production line for carrying out the method.
