Aside from that stipulation, they 100% match your needs. We have switched to them from sourcing directly to Hoya and after years of experience, have found their quality and service unmatched.

It has been ages since I've logged on to Optiboard, but I felt a disturbance and I'm glad I took a look around.
Cherry Optical Lab (Cherry Optical, Inc) located in Green Bay, WI is 100% Independent and 100% owned by Joe, Lynn, and Adam Cherry. The association we have with Essilor is that we are an authorized distributor of Essilor, Crizal, Varilux, and Transitions lenses. This is no different than our association with all lens manufacturers - Younger, Shamir, Signet Armorlite, Hoya, Seiko, VisionEase, Somo, TOG, IOT, Crossbows, etc. Additionally, we are enabled to produce Essilor's freeform designs ((all Varilux & Essilor (Definity, Ideal, etc) designs)) and Crizal (Crizal Rock, Crizal Avance, Crizal Alize, Crizal Easy, Crizal Sapphire & Crizal with Optifog).
Just to be clear, there is 0.0 agreement whereas Essilor owns or has the right to own any part of COL.
Thank you.
