A process for manufacturing a gob as a primary product for pressing a pressed glass product for optical applications comprises filling a glass melt from a feeder into a casting mold having a substantially cylindrical shape, wherein the mold is made of an oxidation resistant material being substantially resistant against the glass melt and substantially free of sticking, wherein the glass melt is cut off by means of glass scissors for portioning a gob, the gob is cooled thereafter and removed from the mold so as to yield a gob having a fire-polished front face and a peripheral surface formed by a contact with the mold and being suitable for finish-pressing a pressed glass product for optical applications.
