Pt was wearing a FT-28 and we recently did a new pair in a very similar frame. His complaint is that when wearing his FT distance and reading are great. When he looks at intermediate through either...

Unless that doc wants to actually see the money. Patients are HORRIBLE about paying their co-pays after they leave the office. Also, it becomes pretty expensive to send out that many $20-$40 bills...

That just made my day :giggle:

I looked into the place after I got home and they seem dedicated on optical in general. They also had a pretty cool optical shop in the store that had a bunch of independent designers. I think this...

I was looking at some shops in Lisbon and I stumbled onto this place, named the Chiado Factory, that has some neat vintage optical equipment on display. It is one of those kitchy retro vintage shops....

I am need of some good ideas. I have been asked to come to my daughter's school and talk about my career as an Optician. No big deal I don't mind public speaking and I like talking about what I do....

I have a relax and their is some distortion. I probably notice it more because I am basically plano. I think if less distortion is what you are going for then a relax would be better than a...

As soon as it comes out for Android I will try it out :)

I threatened to sell my first born to try a pair. :mstickle: I did see recently where a cop in CA pulled a lady over for driving with them on.

NC is working hard to prevent these types of sales and we have a some legislature pending that would make it easier to report beauty shops and other places as we find them.

Hoya Tact (always use 40 unless there is a STRONG reason to use the 60) or Shamir Autograph Office. I think the Hoya "blue blocking" AR coating is a less obnoxious color reflecting back (the Crizal...

As much as I love Silhouette, their cases drive me bonkers because of this. The California Optics cases we get are still fuzzy but don't seem to leave lint.

Seems Hoya is getting in on this too with the ID Lifestyle 2 Clarity

Do an over refraction. If you get plano, or close to it then you are good, if you get one eye + and the other - then they are switched (assuming you were not doing monovision)

We basically use a scorecard (seriously we had them printed and padded with our logo). Here is an image of what we use:

We do charge for poly upgrade ($70) on all surfaced lenses. If we...

Same patient... three times... make sure there is not something chemical going on here. Is the patient cleaning their glasses with Windex, or using hairspray, or do they have any hobbies that produce...

I agree the Cloud is not such a hot idea, but as far as laptops or computers go, I would not buy anything that isn't a quad core processor.

Get in touch with Barry Dark at DTCC (darkb@durhamtech.edu) I know it isn't super close to Charlotte but the good part is that with the CL exam you can practice on the actual equipment you will be...

FYI, Smith Optics offers Glass Rx in some of their frames. Availability is spotty but it is nice for people who scratch the heck out of their sun lenses.

US right now but headed to Portugal for 3 years.

The new Betty and Dude collection has two different bridge fits but nothing for the MX20. Have you tried liberty's anti-fog lens cleaner? It does help some and it is just a paste you rub into the...

Earlier this year it was announced... I might add right after we switched from ABB to ODG :stomp:. ODG does have a significantly better stock lens catalog. It is frustraiting that our options for...

I was told that the Rec Specs sold at Walmart do not offer the lifetime warranty like the ones sold at independents.
