Lab Insight............Thank you for the encouraging words, I appreciate a positive answer once in a while.
On my last thread I just started an hour ago, (
Mass Production in the Lens Industry ) I found a website of a Belgian Company that supplies fully automated optical labs and has already installed quite a few, or parts on this continent plus one more coming now that I know of.
You can see the existing ones at:

The List goes from Walmart in Dallas to Pech Optical.
These labs can, in my opinion deal with a monstrous amount of work using a very small work force, as they are just about fully automated. It all has surfaced unexpected.
Knowing this, our online optical retail industry might, or already has found a new source of supply, at which point glasses could be made in the same pot for B&M stores as well as for on-line opticals.
