PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a spectacle lens coating liquid coating device that can efficiently coat a spectacle lens with a coating liquid while being capable of reliably preventing splashing of the coating liquid.SOLUTION: A spectacle lens coating liquid coating device comprises: a lens support section 6 for supporting a spectacle lens 2 so as to orient a lens surface upward; a multi-joint robot 3 that jets out a coating liquid and coats the lens surface with the coating liquid; and a coating liquid splash prevention section 9 having a box-shaped cover 21 that surrounds the spectacle lens 2 supported by the lens support section 6 from downward and a horizontal direction. The coating liquid splash prevention section 9 comprises an exhaust mechanism 31 that sucks air in a space surrounded by the cover 21 and exhausts the air outside the cover 21. At a portion where the air in the cover 21 is sucked in the exhaust mechanism 31, a coating liquid absorption member that has air permeability and can capture the coating liquid splashed during coating is provided.
