Provided is a method of producing an optical element. The method includes heating a preform that is made of a fluorophosphate glass material to alter a region including a surface of the preform to form a protection layer; and performing press molding on the preform with the formed protection to form a molded object having an optical element shape.

There is provided a method for manufacturing a method for manufacturing an optical element, wherein a mold-press molding is performed by use of a material body having a prismatic shape to form a light transmission part and a flange of the optical element, the flange extending outward from the light transmission part. In the manufacturing method, only a corner of the material body to be subjected to a mold transfer to provide an edge face of the flange.

The present application belongs to the technical field of manufacture for protection film for a terminal curved surface, and relates to a protection film for a terminal curved surface and manufacture method thereof, the hardened layers is provided on both sides of the substrate layer, and the substrate layer and the two hardened layers form the original sheet. The original sheet is hot-pressed by a hot pressing device, and the upper mold and the lower mold clamping the original sheet are heated, pressurized and cooled in order to obtain a protection film for a terminal curved surface, and the mold core outer rounded corner combining with the mold cavity inner rounded corner are pressurized to form a curved surface portion. The hardened layers is disposed on both sides of the substrate layer, so that the stress on both sides of the substrate layer are cancel each other after the substrate layer is heated, and the terminal surface protective film is more flat. The protection film for a terminal curved surface is easy to be molded, sensitive to be touched, high in hardness, and the outer side hardness can reach 9H, which is not easy to produce scratches, anti-fingerprint, anti-fragmentation edge, explosion-proof, and the protection film for a terminal curved surface has a curved surface portion suitable for protecting the terminal curved screen.
