Abstract
A progressive spectacle lens has a front face and a rear face and a uniform substrate with a locally varying refractive index. The front face and/or the rear face of the substrate is formed as a free-form surface and carries only functional coatings, if any. The refractive index varies (a) only in a first spatial dimension and in a second spatial dimension and is constant in a third spatial dimension, a distribution of the refractive being neither point-symmetrical nor axis symmetrical, or (b) in a first spatial dimension and in a second spatial dimension and in a third spatial dimension, a distribution of the refractive index being neither point-symmetrical nor axis symmetrical, or (c) in a first spatial dimension and in a second spatial dimension and in a third spatial dimension, a distribution of the refractive index not being point-symmetrical or axis symmetrical at all.
