LAMINATED MIRROR LENS
First Claim
1. A lens comprising:
- a lens body comprising a substantially rigid material, the lens body having a convex surface and a concave surface; and
a functional stack bonded to the lens body, the functional stack comprising;
a first flexible thin polymeric material having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; and
a functional layer applied to the first surface of the flexible thin polymeric material,wherein the functional layer is positioned between the lens body and the first flexible thin polymeric material.

Abstract
A lens for eyewear is configured to reduce the appearance of scratches on the lens and/or increase the durability of the lens. The lens can include a functional stack bonded to a lens body. The functional stack can include a functional layer, such as a thin film coating, sandwiched between the lens body and an optical-grade transparent film. The functional stack can increase abrasion resistance and environmental durability of the lens, and can reduce the appearance of scratches on the lens. The combined lens body and functional stack can increase the durability of the lens relative to a lens with a thin film coating (e.g., a gradient or mirror stack) on an external surface of the lens.
