Abstract:
A tinted polarizing optical element includes a pre-manufactured polarizing optical assembly. The polarizing optical assembly includes a first layer provided from a thermoplastic or a thermosetting material; a second layer consisting of a polarizing film; and a third layer provided from a thermoplastic or a thermosetting material, wherein the second layer consisting of the polarizing film is disposed between the first layer and the third layer. The optical element further includes a fourth layer provided from a tinted thermoplastic material, which is disposed over the polarizing optical assembly such that the fourth layer is spaced apart from the polarizing film by at least one layer. The tint of the fourth layer is obtained independently from the polarizing optical assembly. The optical element also includes a fifth layer provided from a crystal thermoplastic material, which has a finished surface to provide a corrective effect.

Claim (Index 21):
A tinted polarizing optical element, comprising:\n a pre-manufactured polarizing optical assembly having first and second opposite surfaces, the polarizing optical assembly consisting of:\n a first layer having first and second opposite surfaces, said first layer being provided as a thermoplastic or a thermosetting material; \n a second layer consisting of a polarizing film; and \n a third layer having first and second opposing surfaces, said third layer being provided as a thermoplastic or a thermosetting material, wherein the second layer consisting of the polarizing film is disposed between the second surface of the first layer and the first surface of the third layer, wherein the first surface of the first layer forms the first surface of the polarizing optical assembly and the second surface of the third layer forms the second surface of the polarizing optical assembly; and \n a fourth layer having first and second opposing surfaces, said fourth layer being provided from a tinted thermoplastic material, wherein the fourth layer is injection-molded over the second surface of the pre-manufactured polarizing optical assembly such that the first surface of the fourth layer contacts the second surface of the polarizing optical assembly and such that the tinted thermoplastic material is spaced apart from said polarizing film layer by at least one layer; and a fifth layer having first and second opposing surfaces, said fifth layer being provided from a crystal thermoplastic material, wherein the fifth layer is injection-molded over the second surface of the fourth layer such that the first surface of the fifth layer contacts the second surface of the fourth layer and the second surface of the fifth layer is provided which can be surfaced finished so as to form a corrective lens without altering the tint or color of the glass.
