ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a method of manufacturing an optical element with a lens barrel, in which an optical raw material is placed on a placement portion projecting toward the center of the lens barrel from the inner peripheral surface thereof, and assuming that a distance between the opposing ends of the projection of the placement portion is L1, the outside diameter of the optical raw material is L2, the inside diameter of the lens barrel portion which is positioned close to and above the placement portion and to which the perimeter of the optical element obtained after forming is joined is L3, and the inside diameter of the smallest opening on the upper end side of the lens barrel is L4, design is performed to satisfy a relation of L1<L2<L3<L4. Further, a wall surface providing said inside diameter L3is extended to a predetermined length in parallel with the optical axis to configure a straight wall surface, and the optical raw material placed on the placement portion is pressed by a pair of shaping dies consisting of an upper die and a lower die, causing the outer edge of the raw material to be joined to the straight wall surface of the inside surface of the lens barrel, wherein when the outside diameter of the optical element obtained after forming is assumed to be L5, the configuration is performed to satisfy L4<L5.
