Patent ID: 7295886

Claim:
A method of processing an eyeglass lens comprising: a first step of obtaining an actual three-dimensional target lens shape from a rim of an eyeglass frame; a second step of obtaining a circumferential length of the actual three-dimensional target lens shape and a two-dimensional target lens shape based on the actual three-dimensional target lens shape; a third step of transmitting at least the two-dimensional target lens shape without transmitting the circumferential length of the actual three-dimensional target lens shape; a fourth step of obtaining a circumferential length of a three-dimensional target lens shape restored based on the transmitted two-dimensional target lens shape; a fifth step of obtaining a bevel path having a circumferential length that substantially accords with the circumferential length of the restored three-dimensional target lens shape; and a sixth step of forming a bevel on a peripheral edge surface of the lens based on the obtained bevel path.
