Hi everyone.

lente en bruto
Antiguamente, se partía desde un lente en bruto o bloque en bruto (o block en bruto) que en portugués le llaman bloco, pero ahora la fábrica, la fundición de vidrio, (p.ej. Corning, Schott, etc.) que fabrica estos bloques de vidrio óptico, oftalmológico si es para anteojos, los envía a las fábricas de lentes para que a su vez los tallen(grind), generen, o trabajen en máquinas generadoras (de lentes) las que son tornos (lathes) especializados para (1) producir un/a lente semi terminado/a, es decir, tallado sobre una cara(la convexa) para los laboratorios ópticos, ó (2) producir un/a lente terminado/a, tallada sobre ambas caras con las potencias dióptricas específicas para ese/a lente especificado en la receta médica o la curva requerida si es para otro tipo de industria óptica.
