Hoya and Essilor are the most interchangeable designs, ( generally). Zeiss is a different animal. It’s much easier to switch an E design for an H design, going to or switching, than either direction...

Roll and polish, (even just rolls) look hideous. When I got requests (because of previous use) of rolls, I hade a frame with a -10, one lens rolled and one with a hide a bevel with edge tint, it was...
Believe it or not, there was a time, some OD’s didn’t give a rip if you didn’t buy glasses from them. They gave solid advice, offered best design options on their patents visual needs, and X was the...
Big believer in conventional PAL’s over office designs for computer use (adjusted for distances used). Too many successes comparatively.
Normally, you use all refractions done in a given time frame vs sales of glasses. That keeps it simple. But there are variables to the “rule”. Like if you don’t have an OD/MD at your location, you...
I differ to your expertise Uille, these were the only plausible reasons I’ve heard of, all hearsay, to some degree I’m sure. Though I used to play golf, my game was so bad that magic glasses wouldn’t...
The main reasons that I’ve heard are…Skiers. They need to see the “ice” on their course. Pilots. Old instruments are cross polarized and can blackout/become difficult to read. And golfers....
^^Yup.
Insurance reimbursement is so small, you have to go to a policy of “Payment required at time of service”. If you don’t want to be the bad guy, throw it on their insurance, that THEY require...
If you order a pd of 30/30 and you received something different, then the lab was at error. How does the lab know that your requested pd wasn’t already compensated? Just like if you order a high...
It’s been a long time since I took insurance, but they used to mandate that you carry at least some inventory of “covered” items, (like frames). How do you get around this, or do they no longer...
You didn’t collect fees at checkout? Your fault.
Rod Argent is a monster keyboardist. Just fluid from brain to hands…very rare..

I would simply say that their warranty has run out and it’s 500 dollars to rub a new polar filter on her lenses. Explain the difficulties associated with rubbing polar filters on lenses, how you just...
Just finished watching totality in the yard/field. Was really cool! The temp dropped, birds got quiet, ( and sounded like morning singing when the sun started coming back). The 2 coolest things were,...

I actually looked more like Eddie than Diamond Dave back in the day! Lol!
Because they were making sure the promoters were actually reading the contract. ( I didn’t need to cheat). Now, back to your regular program hour..
Labs have always, “Made as ordered”. You order a 60 pd with 10D of prism, you will (should) get 10D at 60mm. Even in the old days, we never differed from order on high Rx’s unless refracted and worn...
^ This is what I always strived for. Folks wanting to work with us. Word of mouth gets out through reps and peers that you have a great work environment. The one thing that always gets me is when you...
It all starts with the employees you hire. I always tried to create a great work environment. Keep it fun, uplifting. Everyone got time off every week, paid, just for how “awesome” they were at work....
All I can say is wow! There’s at least 3 here, as a consumer, I would walk out on with your attitude and policies. I never worked like that in 50 years of optics. My last gig was running 3 locations,...
Applies to all prism. Prism not only displaces viewed object, it also displaces the pupil.
