A method for manufacturing a spectacle lens according to at least one data set of edging data and a computer program product with instructions for performing the method are disclosed. A spectacle lens blank, semifinished spectacle lens product, or a finished spectacle lens product is inspected for defects and compared to a data set to determine if it can be manufactured into an edged finished spectacle lens that fits into a specific spectacle frame such that the defect is not present in the edged finished spectacle lens.
