Any research in the field of 3D printing is important at this time. The technology that is steadily progressing and predicting penetration into the modern industry through development is the main theme of this thesis. In the theoretical part technologies of 3D printing are presented, which are nowadays used to prototype and produce spectacle frames. The progress in development of printing lenses for spectacles is also presented. To this whole, an important stage is also 3D modeling, where we build and shape our idea to the point of precision that we achieve conceptual or functional prototype and is an important step in the entire process. Besides the description of 3D modelling, printing technologies for frames and lenses, concrete examples of eyewear, websites and companies are presented, which help us illustrate the theory. In experimental section the cooperation with the company, which is one of the leaders in the field of glasses production is presented. Together we created functional prototype with 3D printing, more precisely with Polyjet technology. The purpose and goal of using 3D technology in such large production is to reduce costs and time of prototyping.
