The current workshops have finishing equipment:
Lensmeters, pattern maker, blocker, edger, hand edger etc.
But thanks for thinking about it

Hi guys,
thanks for the suggestions.

Hi guys,
I work for a public health organisation. I am currently trying to assess the viability of setting up some sort of surfacing laboratory as a long term solution for increasing a country's...

Fair enough,
I agree with the symptomatic, however I will also offer it as an option to a child who is progressing very quickly. If a child is progressing at 1-2 D a year and the parents (or child)...
At 10 years old do you think it'll make a big difference?

Hi all,
There's been some interesting studies on chicks, and how they develop myopia as a result of defocus which is the study that I believe that happy lady is talking about. This would suggest...
I go with woefully understaffed - but it's not for a lack of trying. Trying to find someone... anyone... with optical experience here is like finding a chicken with teeth!

Bingo! You've hit the nail on the head. I've had control of my own little world for too long, and I need to learn to let go.
After finishing my list, I think I need a senior optician as...
Thanks for all the useful (and some of the less useful) ideas.
I do not apologise for hiring someone I think is useful, and then asking them to come up with a list of responsibilities they want...
Well, I don't have a senior optician. I guess that's really what I want, isn't it? Oh well, I've employed him as a retail manager/dispenser, so I'll just have to call those duties retail...
Hahaha... it's just nice to have someone on the floor all the time to manage as opposed to me stuck in the room.
I have already hired someone. I've told him to go away and think up a list of...
I'm really looking for an optician manager - an optician to manage my opticians. They don't really do any 'practice' duties - I do the rostering, pays, accts, buying etc, but I'm paying them as a...
Optical duties as well. Actually, I would say that the optical duties come first, and the practice manager type duties come second.

Hi all,
I am trying to come up with a list of responsibilities for my practice manager. Can anyone point me in the direction of some resources that might help?
Thanks

Back to the doc for a recheck.
4.50 cyl, 5 degrees.... blurriness looking forward = alarm bells.
I say don't redo before a recheck, if not I reckon you might be eating 2 sets of lenses,...

Firstly, how does she feel when she is wearing her old specs? Is the problem still there? (If so, think fields and motility for a secondary).
On the retest, what was her vision out of her old...
Thanks NPDR...

NPDR,
I'm with Stonegoat on this one. You are coming across as arrogant, and pompous...
purveyor of goods??? That makes them sound like a haberdasherer!!!
Come on everyone... let's...
Harry,
I find this quote insulting. I believe there are good opticians, and bad opticians. Just like I believe that there are good ODs and bad ODs. I think it is unfair that you have just...
A full circle we have come :D
Wasn't the point of this thread that optoms shouldn't write anything but numbers on their scripts? That SVD/SVN or no progressives, or polycarbonate really shouldn't...
OHPNTZ,
I too, must respectfully disagree with you. I have a set amount of chair time with a patient. Absolutely. You simply cannot run a practice if you don't have a set time for appointments. ...

Found it
Absolutely agree Chip...
