Patient experiencing acuity issues only in SV polarized Maui's
I had a patient today who presented with blurriness and very a small focal area in his Maui Jims that he's had for about 10 days. We also dispensed clear lenses in a traditional ophthalmic frame...
If you're still interested in this, you might look into Vedalo HD. They have great products for aviation, driving, golfing, and more. From what I hear from the aviation community, it's become go-to...
So glad to hear that many of you have had great success with DEL. Their price, high-tech workflow, and private label lenses compelled us to give the a try. Additionally, they were willing to work...
Thanks, fjpod, for the Huvitz recommendation (affirming Barry's recommendation).
Now, regarding your quote:
OK, you piqued my curiosity. I follow you about holding up the lens to find the...
Barry, I didn't hear back from you...hope my additional questions weren't irritating. In the meantime, after conducting an informal survey of about 15 different private practices in our area...

My patient's lenses (with AR) looked great, with no crazing and no newton noise waves (as described in the posts above). So, I'm still stumped after reading the posts (and linked posts) above.
Thanks much, Austinwear and uncut!
Have you ever seen AR cause a non-adapt situation?
I have a patient who swears that CR39 is the only material that will work for him. Despite that (thinking that he had never tried Trivex before) one of our opticians tried him in Trivex with Zeiss...

Thankful for daily grace!
I love what Landlord said about ask lots of questions...and what was said about reading body language. For those of you are newer to optical, or those who feel like you're kind of in a rut, I offer...
A couple of random tips:
1. If you have a phillips head screw where the "+" grooves have been stripped in the head (especially if you don't have a screw extractor), try taking a metal file (the...
Fezz, I'd like to buy the package. E-mail me at rsmith@fvc2020.com. Thanks.
Thanks for the quick feedback and advice, everybody. I've been in optics for 4.5 years, but only on Optiboard this past year...and only posting more recently. It will be a growing trend, I can see...
You ask a good question. I hope that I'm not missing something really obvious in asking all of my questions. To be honest, I'm earnestly and constantly trying to figure which lens product is most...
12K retail price currently. Did you ever try or buy one? I've heard mixed reviews on them. Seemed to pricey and risky for me. Not competitive in today's market of quickly emerging equipment to...
We're looking at buying one as well. Trying to buy an auto lensometer (at least one that won't be outdated in 2 years) is a difficult prospect in the newly-emerging market of instruments that deal...
One professional (OD) I consulted recommended that I consider lowering the seg 3mm and bumping the add to 2.25, thus keeping the distance clear and helping them get to the target add power at the...
Plano Presbyopes - Take 2 :)
Apart from reading optiboard, it's hard to find objective opinions on complex questions. I've been in the business 5 years and still feel way too much like a rookie when it comes to progressives. ...
Eye Care Centers of America has been renamed, yes. Now it's Visionworks of America. They bought up a bunch of regional brands and are slowly trying to consolidate those brands. As of about 2 years...
I'm not sure how many folks out there will benefit from this, but I recently came up with the following information for staff training purposes...and to assist in patient education. It was my attempt...
One more note...my Shamir rep told me today that all semi-finished lenses have the laser engravings on the front of the lens, and all "fully freeform" lenses have the laser engravings on the back of...
