Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a transparent optical component having a cellular structure, comprising a network of walls (106), that forms a set of cells (104) that are juxtaposed parallel to a component surface. In order to produce such a component, an irregular set of points (101, 105) in the surface of the component is determined, each point being used to form a center of one of the cells. A position and an orientation of each wall are then determined such that the set of cells forms a Voronoï partition of the surface of the component. The component has a level of transparency that is compatible with an optical or ophthalmological use.
