    Does anyone know how to be a provider for Davis Vision and NOT use their labs?

    Good luck. I can't even get a consistent answer on trying to switch labs within their own network. Never thought I would be begging to go back to plainview .

    They added a new in San Antonio late last year. This is quite literally the worst lab I have ever had to use. We recently had a job for a Shamir Intouch and they tried to tell Rx was out of power range for the lens even though it was well within range. After about 7 weeks they had the Philly lab make the lens then San Antonio drill it. They drill the holes extra large and use their own big A$$ plugs even if I send them standard silhouette plugs. /Rant
