Hi! My name is Bruna Lonzetti and I am going to take the practical exam in Albany next month. I have been an optician for 10 years but I did all my study at home. I dont have much information about the exam in Albany because the text book really only help you with the ABO which I passed last year. I hear so many things about the exam as far as the "certain words" I souldn't say like: Temple (should I say only end piece or hinge?), should I say angling insteadt of bending up or down? I know guard arm is the right word... I am also confused about what frames to take. Where I work we dont really have any small double bridge hard frame. What kind of frames do you suggest I take? I would really appreciate your help...Thank you so much...Bruna brunaveneza@yahoo.com
