<p>A molding material is heated and pressed plural times when molded is an optical element having a radius of curvature smaller than a radius of a sphere having the same volume as the optical element. When such an optical element is molded, a closed space is formed between a molding material and a transfer surface of a mold in a state where the molding material is placed thereon. Thus, an appearance defect such as a recess is easily generated on the molded optical element. However, since the molding material is molded plural times, it is possible to place the molding materials on the transfer surfaces of the molds after a size of the closed space is adjusted so as not to generate the appearance defect prior to each heating/pressing process. Thereby, it is possible to suppress generation of an appearance defect in the molded optical element.</p> |
