Picture taken with a actual potato. No really he's standing on about 3 inches of workbench there. Not much time for fine photo work but, I thought ya'll might appreciate the image all the...
Cut the back off, carefully, Use these to push the bushing/frame out.
20 minutes from starting to dismantle to finished assembly is not unreasonable, this is specialty stuff.
So I'm going on inspection Friday, gonna check out a SL-2 and an Vista 2G. Is there any particular red flag I need to watch for on the SL-2? It may work out to be a better deal. It's case is a little...
Thanks for the advice!
We're pretty low volume and just CR39, so it looks like the advantages the other machines offer over the Vista2G won't really apply to us. Which is handy since it's cheaper.
So I'm in the market for a new used generator. We're a retail lab so nothing huge and elaborate, also keeping cost to a minimum.
I've got it pretty much down to an SGX and a Vista 2G. I have...
Solid improvements, with a smaller package size no less. Prism tools would be great, maybe a calculator to determine if a stock lens is usable vs surfaced.
The permissions, uh yeah that's a lot.
fun?
Didn't that used to be a standard skill of an optician?
That shouldn't be, I use an old Kappa M10 and one cut almost every job. Keep in mind the edging follows the trace, bad trace = bad edging.
We had a bad thrust bearing on the lens clamp a couple...
Night fishing is about intuition, location, and persistence. Vision has little to do with it beyond tying a knot and not catching your buddy.
*hook and line fishing, I know nothing of bow fishing.
Being in Florida we do a lot of fishing oriented sunwear. I find brown polar + Blue mirror to be terrific and complimentary. Lots of visible light blockage, great color pop looking into the water,...
If they are selling prescriptions suns direct to consumers, which I believe they are. They are gonna get a bad rep fast, we have had a ton of trouble getting Rx filled through them (Zeiss) correctly....
It's hers to give away just the same as it is to sell, I have tons of respect for both sides of that coin.
Got to put it to use the very first day, double checking the drop on an Adage lens before edging. The lens option/material filter is great, very quick, may even be able to use it in front of patients...
Just installed. It's looking good thanks!
Yep, and I'd love to help!
$4-$15 depending on the amount of features and whether or not is has ads.
Thoughts?

I find the effort at the edger satisfying. Some frames don't lend themselves to tracing, some lenses don't lend themselves to mounting, figuring out how to exploit the technology available has made...
When you are set to edge, measure the B before you take out the demo, measure again after it's been removed. If there is any difference, trace the demo lens and size down appropriately. This will...
Here's a start, it verifies what Uilleann said.
Playing with a few lenses, I think the main improvement is in the brown. The Gray is a little more neutral, but the Brown is an actual brown rather than muddy gray.
Wow, Optiboard is pretty awesome! Thanks for the great answers guys. The patient is coming by today, so I'm stoked to have an answer for him.
A patient asked me the other day, 'Why is 20ft the standard for refraction?' I had to admit had no idea. From a little research I see that the Snellen chart is designed around 20ft/6m (duh) but no...
I've never liked working with headphones. I rely on the sounds the machines are making. Headphones have me walking in circles.
