    Progressive identifier - upside down squiggly " V " ??

    I'm trying to identify an old progressive that looks sort of like an upside down squiggly letter V under the 180 circle on the nasal side. Its frustrating as I know I've seen these in the past and I can't remember or find what it is. Anyone?

    If it's what I'm thinking, every customer that's had one said they got it at visionworks.

    Seagull? Will guarantee you Pk called it. That proprietal rebrand logo goes back to 'EyeMaster' days. (This is why I keep the Comfort DRx in the formulary.)

    Could it be an Illumina PAL? Without seeing it, it's hard to visualize....

    This was the only one I could find, but it doesnt look like a seagull. ㄟ( ・ө・ )ㄏ

    My guess is its someones house brand, so whatever your mid-tier PAL is itll probably do the job.

    Do we have any VisionWorks opticians here? I'm curious as to what this lens actually is, as we all know it is SOME lens company's design, even if it is privately branded
