    Need help finding a frame

    I have a patient who's a -10.50 with a small head and not so small nose, so I'm trying to find a fairly small, decent quality oval. His current frame measures 42-23 with a B of 29.5. Any suggestions?

    The Laura Ashley Bridgette. It comes 43-22 (I think). I use it for many of my high minus. If you need one, let me know, but hurry, I've only got 641 left. (really)

    Signature's Dakota Smith line has "Belief," which is 41x22. Prodesign has some pretty interesting ovals, like the 1193 (43x22), 1211 (45x21) (I put a -11 in 1.74 progressive in this one), and 1655 (43x22). I've seen others, but I'm at home and don't have access to my catalogs. Hope these help though!

    Oh...I should have mentioned, that Laura Ash frame is metal and has no nosepieces. I mean, I didn't chew them off, it's a unifit.

    Man, Sman! I sell this frame to many more men than women. (I'm serious) In fact, I sell it to a lot of civil war re-enactors, as it has the old look to it ,and there's no plastic on it except for the endpieces.
