ABSTRACT:
A progressive lens mold, a method of making a progressive lens mold, and progressive lenses made using such mold or method. Back faces of progressive molds are preferentially tapered at their edges to reduce prism effects in lenses made using such molds. The tapering is accomplished by removing more of the back face adjacent the near portion vision zone of the mold versus the back face adjacent to the far vision zone of the molds.
