An inkjet method for producing a spectacle lens and fluids that can be used in an inkjet method for producing a spectacle lens are disclosed. The inkjet method includes the following steps: a) providing a substrate to be printed on, b) applying to the substrate to be printed on from step a) at least two volume elements applied adjacently and/or adjoining one another, c) transferring the at least two volume elements applied adjacently and/or adjoining one another from step b) into at least one volume composite, d) transferring the at least one volume composite from step c) into at least one homogeneous volume composite, e) transferring the at least one homogeneous volume composite from step d) into at least one final volume composite.
