    As a 50 year old optician who has worn numerous progressive brands and also a victim of a botched lasik procedure-I personally love the Office lens by Shamir- and based on sales and feedback-almost everyone who purchases it loves it too.The only warning-follow Shamir fitting guidelines!

    I have fit (with 99% success) the "Technica" by AO for about 8 years. No special calculations need be made, no need to decipher which add power is best, no special anythings, and it has a distance window in larger frames. The only return I've ever had was from a lady who wore executive trifocals and wanted to try "something different".
    The others are all fit also with good success. Yes, I know this isn't first-hand from a wearers's viewpoint, but just thought you might like to know the opinion of someone not tied to any manufacturer. Having made all of them, I prefer the Technica. Having friends and relatives trying out lenses for me- the verdict comes back the same. Technica wins.

    I too use the office lens and love it. Never had a problem.

    I have worn the Rodenstock Office. It works well for me. If you spend any time on a PC, I suggest one of these types to save your neck!
