Rotational molding of contact lenses

摘要

A toric or bifocal contact lens comprising a central optic zone and a peripheral zone, said peripheral zone having affixed to its anterior surface a bead, said bead on at least a part of the upper half of said peripheral zone being tapered down from a sweeping arc which intersects with the bead on each side of the lens to the uppermost point on the periphery of the lens. The lens can be prepared by casting in a mold to obtain the desired anterior surface of the lens followed by lathe cutting the posterior surface.
