Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the existing photochromic lenses have only one degree of color change depth in the state of complete color change, corresponding to a certain value of light transmittance, which cannot meet the needs of some users for different color change depths when looking at near and far outdoors.
Moreover, the photochromic lenses in the prior art undergo rapid deep discoloration under changes in light intensity, and this sudden change in depth will bring discomfort such as dizziness or momentary inability to see objects to the user.

Abstract

The invention provides a photochromic lens, and a preparation method and an application thereof. The photochromic lens comprises a substrate, a first photochromic gradient layer, a second photochromicgradient layer, a first hard reinforcing layer and a second hard reinforcing layer. Firstly, the first photochromic gradient layer and the second photochromic gradient layer endow the photochromic lens with the properties of being colorless and transparent under indoor light intensity and becoming dark under outdoor sunlight activation; and secondly, through adopting a color fading treatment process, the photochromic lens presents different photochromic depths under the activation of sunlight, the gradual change effect of the photochromic lens is realized through the transition between different photochromic depths, the requirements of a user for different photochromic depths when the user looks near and far outdoors are met, and the discomfort brought to the user due to sudden change ofthe color depth is avoided. The photochromic lens can be obtained by adopting a layer-by-layer dip-coating, lifting and curing method, the preparation process is simple, and the photochromic lens hasa wide industrialization prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of spectacle lenses, and in particular relates to a color-changing lens and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] Ultraviolet rays in sunlight can be divided into three categories according to their wavelengths: UVA, UVB and UVC. Among them, UVC is absorbed when it passes through the atmosphere, so the ultraviolet rays that affect the human eye are mainly UVA and UVB. When the light enters the eye, only about 4% is lost through the reflection of the corneal surface, and most of the light is refracted into the eye, and then absorbed by the cornea, aqueous humor, lens and vitreous body in turn. UV rays that cause damage to the eyes. Studies have shown that the damage of ultraviolet rays to the eyes is cumulative. Long-term exposure to ultraviolet rays can cause damage to the cornea, conjunctiva and lens, and increase the risk of conjunctivitis, keratitis, cataract and mac...
