Sorry Judy, I was referring to your emoticon above, bashing the head against two brick walls. Found it quite humorous actually. Sorry that it sounded like I was saying you were bashing the other person, not what I intended. Isn't electronic communication great!

Standard 1.74 blanks would be to thin for this RX, both Ice-Tech and Epic cast their own blanks, but only Ice-Tech has hot rodded their free-form generators and software to make this power a piece of cake. I think they have done a -31.00 even. Epic would do this bi-concave and blended lenticular. Ice-Tech will provide a better blend than the Epic jobs I have seen, without a bi-concave front, resulting in better cosmetics in 2 areas.

Rosalie, welcome to Optiboard! There are more liability issues with high index glass here in the US than you Canuks have, most of us won't touch it because we don't want to be suied.
