<p>A polisher (1) for polishing a curved surface such as the convex surface of a spectacle lens, comprising a polishing pad (3) having water passing grooves (5) of 0.1 to 5 mm wide stuck on a dome-shaped elastic base material (2), the polishing pad (3) further comprising a plurality of pads (31), wherein the widths (W) of the water passing grooves (5) are narrowed by forming the water passing grooves (5) in clearances between the pads (31), the pads (31) are formed in a polygon for effective polishing, the movable range (6) of a polished material (8) is covered by the polishing pad (3), and the polishing pad (3) is stuck to the elastic base material (2) through a highly adhesive agent layer (4); the polishing method, comprising the step of, by using the polisher (1), pressing the polishing pad (3) against the polished material (8) to polish the polished material (8), whereby the polishing pad (3) stuck on the elastic base material (2) can be prevented from being separated by the end edge of the polished material (8) to prevent a defective polishing from occurring.</p> |
