Thank you Quince lots of look suggestions. Varvatos is a good idea. That Kala line seems to have many good choices for higher Rx's and in smaller eye sizes.

Anyone have any other great...

Thank you Chris. Kudos. That is a very nice list.

Thanks for the great reference. I admire much of the work done by Darryl Meister, who we all can agree was a true visionary in the eyecare field.

In the past I had worked with many jobs for...

Size matters. Early in 2017 John Segers did a great video discussing how frame choice effects lens thickness, saying the frame size and frame shape matters.

I am trying to put together a...

Another awesome vid John.

Auto 3 is nice if you want to adjust for POW in that script, otherwise Auto2 may suffice. If he is going for sunglasse, I may consider a fixed 18, and as said above with fitting cross positioned at...

My personal feeling is that the top of a double D occupational bifocal if at the same power as the bottom will probably be too strong and have too short a working distance(WD). For say an...

Hi John. Thank you for the reply. I appreciate your effort.

BTW--I have a new staffer. I am having her and and my pretest tech have a look at your 4 videos on Lensometry, as well as the intro...

John,

Thank you for the response. I appreciate your valued input. I would love to open it up to others that may have some preferred frames for these special Rx's. I feel it fits in perfectly...

John, great vid. Impressive Seeger's Rule with impressive music selection.

Speaking of selection, and size matters, Seeger's rule seems to say that selection matters.

Can you suggest some...

For the best most detailed way to clean a phoropter it should be carefully disassembled, all lens surfaces cleaned front and back, and as mentioned above, old lubricant removed and replaced, and any...

Thank you again Tallboy and Precisionlab. Nice calculator on Opticampus. Sounds like a good rule of thumb on +2.75 & up.

We prefer to always assess presenting or entrance acuity with the patient's current Rx. If their entering VA is less <= 20/30, I ask my staff to additionally assess pinhole acuity which demonstrates...

Thanks for the good response Tallboy.

So let's say we have an Rx that is +1.00 or say +3.00. When ordering stock lenses we seem to be able to get 65mm blanks or I believe 74mm aspheric. Our...

For you seasoned guys with tons of experience edging I would love to get some feedback. When doing grooved rimless jobs for minus lenses, required minimum edge thickness seems not to be a problem. ...

For my everyday progressive I prefer a standard length corridor. I find the short corridor progressive very annoying when doing any activities outside the office such as going to the fitness club,...

We currently have a little manual blocker. &nbsp;We are thinking about getting an Ice Mini. &nbsp;Based on the loads of experience that all you guys have do you all feel that investing about $7K is a...

Much appreciated. Thank you.

Great information. I understand the difference but it is a pleasure to get good feedback from you guys with lots of experience.




LOL--yep. I figured that must be part of a protocol from...

Thanks Craig and Dick for your good input.

We have owned a 9000SX for many years and my optician always had it default to only 1 mode, which I believe was active. As we recently upgraded to this...

When laying out our lenses for edging we can choose Active or Passive. Which is better for typical work and what do those with more experience than our staff advise? If you have a favorite default...
