    i-scription

    I had similar questions when this was being introduced at our office. It would seem that by showing the topography that there is implied the idea that it is in some measure fixing these higher order...

    That's frightening

    Good for him, I am glad that he fought back and was not hurt.
    I wonder if I would have done the same. It's a shame, only the bad guys have guns anymore.

    I-Terminal

    I have not had great success either with the I-terminal, segs were consistently high compared to manual measurements, and with wide temples you can't get a vertex distance. The lens itself has not...

    Conundrum

    I used to think that the best thing to do is define your niche and be great at it. Now I am beginning to think that we might have to become all things to all people. You want a budget package, I got...

    What about equipment and methods for old school frame makers. Anyone have some insight on that sort of thing. My internet searches have turned up little of use.

    How do you make them?

    How do you make your own frames? Are you talking about putting together spare parts from the Misc. bin, or are you talking about from scratch?
    If you make them from scratch I would really...

    Well here is what I ended up doing.
    I found out who made his last lenses and had the lab access those records. I have never done that before, but in this case it worked pretty slick. I am trying to...

    Lens Suggestions on -16.00 Cyl

    Hi all,
    This is why I love this forum. I have a +10.00 -16.00 x084 2.50 add.
    What would you suggest for a progressive?
    His current is a 1.67 Panamic.
    Not surprisingly, very few lenses will cut...

    Yes, her reading looked like a shooting marble sticking out of her lens. The doctor did decide to reduce the add to +20, which leaves her with the same rx. I am not sure what her medical backround...

    I have read here that it can be counter-productive to use Aspheric lenses for Low vision patients because of the reduced magnification.
    Is this true?

    I repeat

    Here is the scoop. Her current glasses look like a round seg of some sort. The add is currently +20.00, and it looks like her distance is perhaps a +4 or 5.00, I haven't looked at her Rx since...

    I was thinking along those lines too. I am wondering how I might get a good near pd, she will probably not see the target in the pupilometer. I think I will do the old ruler on the nose bit.

    In fifteen years I have not had the chance to do an Aphakic lens. So I could use some help. First of all I am concerned that the Doc changed the add from +20 to +25, although her last exam was in...

    Junk

    I have been saying for a while now that the frame quality is really going down hill. Bad designs, poor finish, and cheap materials are all the rage.

    This is true in some many cases. I just looked at a couple pairs of Jimmy Choo sunglasses (very much high end prices) and they were about the quality you get at the local gas station.
