Optical Glass Information

Ohara optical glass serves as the cornerstone of advanced optical systems and is widely used in digital devices, such as digital cameras, cellular camera phones, and LCD projectors. Our leading edge materials are also used in optical devices such as microscopes and astronomical telescopes.

For many years we have been mindful of the environment through the development and manufacture of our ecologically safe glass types, currently melting more than 130 environmentally safe glass types that are free of both lead and arsenic. Ohara produces more than 300 tons of high quality optical glass each month available as strip, slab, cut blanks, pressings and other forms.
