Hello fellow Optiboarders!

I recently took over management of Campus Optical at Seattle Central Community College's School of Opticianry. We have a big job on our hands and are looking to do some...

Me too please!

OK...that is just cool!

Still looks bad. Just goes to prove that an expensive frame does not, in fact, look good just because of the sitcker price.

I am all for iconic style, don't get me wrong, but the cover was just...

I have used Opto, MaximEyes and My Vision Express. I much prefer My Vision Express. Opto is an ancient DOS based system and is not intuitive...at all. IMO MaximEyes is trying too hard, it is...

Can you pease give more information about this? Can these frames be sourced from LC. Does anyone know if programs like this exist outside of LC? I am working on an on-going Jamaica mission and we...

The Jamaica mission is organized through Great Shape Inc. www.gsjamaica.org

I have been on the Jamaica trip...it is in Partnership with VOSH Northwest but anyone can go. Opticians are greatly needed, particularly on week 1 in Montego Bay.

As for VOSH...VOSH Northwest...

The last I heard, Tura was discontinuing Goldfinch. You might want to ask your local rep, just to be sure.

Please PM me more information. I am located in the greater Seattle area and am a Licensed Dispensing Optician.

Thank You

I have been on several missions with VOSH and other organizations. While I really appreciate the desire to help, it is, indeed, more than just passing out readers or auto-refracting.

I dispense all specs in a nice little paper gift bag. I had stickers made with our logo, name, info that I apply to each bag. In the bag I put some tissue paper, a business card, a small bottle of...

On a friendlier note....

It is my hope for us that we can come together on some common ground. Those on Optiboard are dedicated to this profession. We all would like to see it thrive no matter if...

I have never said I am smarter than anyone. No one is saying that having a degree makes one smarter. What it does mean is that I spent 2 years of my time to learn my trade. And, I am sorry if it...

I guess I am somewhat confused.....

It seems to me that everyone can agree that there are many Opticians out there who are excellent at what they do and highly skilled despite no formal...

Me Too!!

The most I can say is have realistic expectations. I spoke with several ODs that I know before making the decision. A few tried to talk me out of it (I am no spring chicken) but they...

Wow! Why don't we just completely generalize! I really get tired of having my attempts to be helpful attacked or otherwise belittled.

My point was finding a word or phrase that speaks high end...

I like the word boutique for a high end practice because it...

I have sold every frame I have ever worn at work....and I also wear the more outrageous and colorful models. Dispensers should pride themselves on being knowledgable about what is new in lenses AND...

I agree...in WA State, as a LDO, my scope of practice includes neutralizing and duplicating. I will NOT fill an expired RX, as that is illegal here. When I do 'neut and dupe' (and it is rare because,...
