Abstract
A multifocal spectacle lens is described with a high positive focal power, with a convex front surface which comprises an aspheric focal portion with an additional near segment, a transition zone surrounding the focal portion and a rim zone, and with an inside surface which forms an afocal margin together with the rim zone. The multifocal spectacle lens according to this invention is characterized by the fact that the near segment has an aspheric design and is separated from the focal section above it by a dividing line which has an approximately straight course. The main meridian of the near segment carries over into the main meridian of the focal section above it continuously and practically without any jump. In an advantageous further design of the spectacle lens according to this invention, an aspheric intermediate portion is provided between the near segment and the distance portion being separated from the distance portion by a dividing line with an approximately straight course and whose vertical main meridian also carries over into the main meridian of the distance portion continuously and practically without any jump.
