Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 138 words
A plastic lens having a stepped segment composed of a copolymer obtained by copolymerizing diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate, at least one monomer selected from the group A shown below and at least one monomer selected from the group B shown below, said materials being used in such proportions that diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate will be 95-50% by weight, the group A monomer will be 5-50% by weight based on the total weight of the diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate and Group A monomer and the group B monomer will be 0.1-25% by weight based on the total weight of said diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate and group A monomer, Group A: methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, cyclohexyl acrylate, glycidyl acrylate, allyl acrylate or their methacrylate versions, Group B: diethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, tetraethylene glycol diacrylate or their methacrylate versions.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 138 words
A plastic lens having a stepped segment composed of a copolymer obtained by copolymerizing diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate, at least one monomer selected from the group A shown below and at least one monomer selected from the group B shown below, said materials being used in such proportions that diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate will be 95-50% by weight, the group A monomer will be 5-50% by weight based on the total weight of the diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate and Group A monomer and the group B monomer will be 0.1-25% by weight based on the total weight of said diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate and group A monomer, Group A: methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, cyclohexyl acrylate, glycidyl acrylate, allyl acrylate or their methacrylate versions, Group B: diethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, tetraethylene glycol diacrylate or their methacrylate versions.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 47 words
The plastic lens of claim 1, wherein the group A monomer is selected from the group consisting of methyl methacrylate, ethyl acrylate and cyclohexyl methacrylate, and the group B monomer is selected from the group consisting of diethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate and tetraethylene glycol dimethacrylate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 79 words
The plastic lens of claim 1, wherein diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate is used in an amount of 90 to 70% by weight, the group A monomer in an amount of 10 to 30% by weight based on the total weight of the diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate and Group A monomer and the group B monomer in an amount of 0.5 to 15% by weight based on the total weight of said diethylene glycol bisallyl carbonate and group A monomer.
