vsp Inspire lens

[allanon]

There's a list of labs on the propaganda. I tossed mine already, but I remember Southern Richmond was on it - they're wholly owned (Sealey).

[karen]

anybody has that list I would LOVE to see it! I'll PM you my fax #

[midohioeye]

Here is your lab list....

VSP LAB Columbus, ohio
Optical Supply
Bell Optical, Twinsburg
Bell Optical, Huntington
Bell optical, Dayton
Top Network, Columbus OH
Omega
DSouthern Optical, Richmond
Precision Optics, St Cloud
Bell Duffens
Twin City, Traverse City
Twin City, Minneapolis

Here is a thought. I wonder how VSP will market this lens, I wonder if they will market this lens to all there members via mailings etc. IF they educate the member population on this lens, we VSP providers may not have a choice BUT to sell this lens when a member comes in asking for it.

Inspire lens

This is a Zeiss product, not Essilor.

[midohioeye]

The printed product info I have say Essilor all over it.

So sell it then. The worst that can happen is a remake which is on VSP's dime. If the patient comes in asking for it all you can do is tell them that you haven't used it yet but if they would like to give it a try than sure, we'll do that.

They are offering a pair to VSP providers and/or their employees. We declined but if you want to try it yourself just contact your VSP lab rep or VSP or one of the labs listed.

Also note that VSP doctors receive an additional $10 when ordered through Eyefinity.

Again, this is the Reveal Lens from VSP and Zeiss.

There you have it Coco. By giving you $10 more on that lens, they are giving you $10 less on the others.

This is just the camels nose under the tent flap...

thats funny... i didnt think VSP would move away from its normal bedmate (essilor) and make an exclusive product with zeiss... so now they are just working both sides of the fence.

i was told the reveal was very similar to the GT2, and the GT2 HD

so now i wonder if the inspire is pretty much a Physio and physio 360

The Inspire lens is an Essilor product.

[allanon]

Looks like there's some confusion.

Zeiss = Reveal
Essilor = Inspire

Most of the discussion in this thread is about the Inspire.

In the world's oldest profession, there are no exclusive customers.;)

VSP Inspire Lens

This is the Accolade lens by Essilor. My selling material was recycled the day I received it. Why sell this when it is available at Lenscrafters, Pearle, and Walmart? In fact, why would you sell Essilor/Varilux lenses in the first place?

I'm sure this cannot be true. I specifically asked the VSP lab rep if this lens was known by any other name. She said no. Surely she would not try to fool me now would she?

[Crazy-bout-Optics]

Not unless she doesn't know, or her rep lied to her, or, and even more probable, her rep doesn't know so simply said "No".
