    Question Question on Frame Facts

    Hi all, just wondering how many use Frame Facts in their practice. I have for many years, although I question how much we actually go to it. Having been given the price for renewal, I'm taking a second look...especially with 2 offices...comments? Alternatives?
    TIA
    Bill

    I haven't had it for 5-6 years. I don't miss it. With all of the manufacturers having their own catalogues or on line catalogues, it's not neccessary to have.

    I could survive without it but I use it all the time. I save an issue a year or so and can look up frames up to 6 years ago. It used to be longer but a neatnik in the office tossed the issues before 2002.:angry:
    Maybe you could split the books so each office gets every other issue?

    Only because we ran out of room to store them :bbg: It was either that or the basement.

    Haven't had a subscription in many years but before the internet it sure was handy. I have been meaning to call my local lab and see if they could send me their old one. Would be nice just to have one around.

    Hi All, I am also seeking a FRAME FACTS or FRAMES DATA price book from the mid 1990's (any year and any quarter). I am willing to pay $150 for it. Please send email to DrRobert@eyeworksgroup.com if you can help. Thank you!
