For what it's worth. I'm an ex-optician that now works for "The Evil Empire". Most of my co-workers are also ex-opticians. I think an optical background is very important. It makes you more credible...

Bearings and Drives in Fargo, ND will have your belt. I am live in NC and heard about them from my brother who lives there. Just send them your old belts and they will advise you as to which belts...

Interesting poll. As a Lux rep I'm glad to see we are in the top three. From a reps view, I can say that my accounts love my SFX and Vogue lines. SFX for it's durability and low cost and Vogue for it...

Johns, seems you support Marchon.
-Marchon, Tura, Safilo, and others get my business because I know that while they will sell to my competition, they are not my competition. They sell frames. They...

Do you have any sunglasses?

I have an old AO lensometer. Works great. Weighs a ton so shipping will be expensive.

I am interested in buying NOS (new old stock) sunglasses. Preferably pre-luxottica Ray-Ban aviators, wayfarers, etc. Will also consider Revo, Killer Loop and any other "brand names"

I am seeking employment on the east coast, preferrably in the Carolinas but will consider other locations. I have over 12 years of experience working in labs, dispensing and presently work as a sales...

Since Luxottica has purchased Ray-Ban they have revamped most of the product. They claim everything is now RXable and the eyewire on all the aviator styles is now much stronger with a deeper groove....

Ryan, if the backorder situation is as serious as you say it is then it should be addressed. I personally have had a couple complaints but I carry mostly sunwear and I don't think BOs are as big a...

Gary, can you tell me of a company that doesn't have a BO problem? Tura, Safilo, Lantis, Marchon, Silhouette, I hear about them on a daily basis. I was a frame buyer for years and can't remember one...

As a Lux rep I have found this topic very interesting. To answer Lenny's question, Michael Boxer is our corporate attorney. Luxottica has recently found a partial solution to the backorder problem....

I have an AO Model 603L. They don't build em like this anymore.

I am a long time optician and recently acquired a job as a rep with a major frame manufacturer. What did it for me was one, being friends with one of their reps and secondly, a good resume. I figured...

Franel Optical is a supplier for them. You will find them in any trade mag.

Make sure when you block the lenses you press down on the distance portion only. Position the lens bifocal up to minimize alloy or wax leakage.

I have the unit at another location so I don't know the model #. It has 2 elements, one in the tank and one in the spigot. It is a large unit that I have seen is several wholesale labs. Next time I...
