    best progressive for this rx

    customer doesnt want to spend money on free form

    -4.25 -0.75 91
    -4.24 -0.75 91

    +1.50

    he bought his own semi rimless frames a box- 52 b box 29. PD 66, Seg 19

    i hope i dont sound stupid for asking this question but this customer is extremely picky i spent a lot of time with this guy, i have a feeling he's gonna be trouble i recommended 1.67 to him but i'm confused about the type of PAL

    What is he current wearing for his PAL?

    What lens companies do you deal with?

    Make sure you take a monocular PD.

    Probably doesn't matter as with a 1.50 add he still has enough accommodation for intermediate naturally.

    He would also see just fine in an FT bifocal. Since he doesn't need the intermediate yet all the progressive will contribute is blurred edges.

    then use the Ovation. You can get it in 1.67, it is relatively inexpensive, and it is a good design. Like Chip said, he probably does not need a fancy lens.
