1)Myops, as you are one of them, are much harder to please. They can take off their glasses and look at any detail like a microscope. Therefore an optician should take measurements and make double sure that everything fits 100%.
2) All this near religious behavior of many optiboard actives of preferring one brand over the other is all big BS as these lenses all come with very minimal differences and are basically all the same, and the whole hype is marketing, advertising like you see in the drug industry.
3) If an optician is not able to fit you with one brand, he will not be able to fit you with another mostly out of one major reason..........which is ......he or she is not capable, because you are more difficult than the normal run of the mill patient, and have to be fitted.......totally right.
As For Life said above find yourself an optician who has a "diploma" hanging in his store proving that he knows what he is doing.
1968 Is correct...........
It would appear that zapped has failed to follow any of the advice he has been given in the past 60 days.He may have gone to the well once to often.
It would appear he is interested in slamming a product which is against posting guidelines. If this redundancy continues it will be dealt with in a manner proscribed. I would be interested in what concrete steps "zapped" has taken to solve his problem besides complaining here.
Good Call '68-
Arizona is a licensed state......
and opticians are subject to regulations. If you feel you have been unfairly treated, lodge a complaint either directly to the board of registration (by mail), or to your state's secretary of consumer affairs (also by mail).Perhaps I would go first to the optician in question and demand what you ordered. (Ziess) If he fails to comply follow the advice above. Once a complaint has been lodged it will be investigated and followed through to your satisfaction. (Ususally by either refund or compliance) The point I was trying to make above is that your complaint cannot be solved here. With all due respect, you have all the advice in this thread alone to solve it, it so please to not start another thread on the same subject.
Thank you for understanding.

Problem solved.............

Good post. Problem solved.
Either
patient gets used to it or has to switch to ST28
Interesting question for Docinchina...
What is better for the patient here, bring up to required correction in increments of say 6 month intervals at 400 bucks a pop, or to tell the patient to stop using 8 year old glasses and bite the bullet and wear the Rx HE told the doctor HE saw better with. Tough call but the title of this thread is "ripped off " and I haven't seen enough evidence of that.....other than the optician not giving him Zeiss lenses, for which there is no good explanation. How did zapped determine they weren't Ziess anyway? If he knew what the trademark for them was,and by his own description he is a layman, methinks legs are being pulled.
