Well, I supposed it would depend on what kind of blocker you have. Using my old ICE-1000 in passive mode, or using my new-ish EZfit I don't compensate anything to get the PDs to come out correctly. I...

I am going to assume you are ordering finished jobs and not uncuts. If you order a 30/30 pd and 10 BO, you are going to get a job that at final inspection is 30/30 with 10 BO. If you measured the...

Technically you need to know the stop distance if you want to use the exact number, which is going to vary by patient.

No. The lab makes what you order. That's it. You tell them what you want, they make it.

This is exactly how it should be, and pretty much how I do it. I'm not fixing other people's mistakes for free. There are a select few nearby clinics who I will straight up refuse to fill Rxs from....

Yes. Because the object image is displaced towards the apex of the prism, the eye has to deviate .27mm towards the apex of the prism, at the lens surface for an average stop distance of 27mm. For...

Yes, the conversation goes like this. During excessive study times, set a timer for 20 or 30 minutes and look out the window or across the room for 30 seconds. Problem solved.

Do all of these 20 somethings need anti-fatigue lenses? Do the have a legitimate accomodative deficiency? Do they have major complaints of headache and eyestrain? If not, your doctor is prescribing...

IMO, the only people who don't like salt pans are people who haven't been trained to use them properly. When out of town relatives ask me where to get glasses, I tell them to ask the optical if they...

If you want to move the image up you need base down prism.

Theo not Thelios. But I don't know what size torx you need. Sounds like a trip to the hardware store is needed. FWIW Etnia Barcelona uses a T-4.

Please, please tell us what line she reps so I never open an account with them. That's the most ludicrous thing I have ever heard of. Throw her out and call her boss.

So $950 for lenses, after discount about $715? Sounds close for that combo, but I've never ordered, nor am I ever going to order, 1.74 transitions. I have a very hefty 1.74 upcharge purposely to...

UV 420 is a in-mass filter up to 420nm. It's nothing to do with Camber or IOT just a material option. I assume its from Mitsui, UV+420 cut. But I'm not positive.



I would be rich if it were....

I've fit 90+% of my PAL patients in various Camber designs for about 10 years now with nary a non-adapt, and many happy patients. I have not run into a situation where I wouldn't recommend it for...

$400!!!

I've never put together a compression mount frame with anything other than sharp nail clippers and compression pliers. What am I missing out on?

I do it quite often. It gives far more choice to patients that need nose pads. It also impresses patients when you show them a sample and they say "Wow I didn't even know that was possible" or " Why...

"Tinted Lenses and Night Driving
A commonly occurring situation that demonstrates the hazards of too much tint for existing conditions is night driving. At night with eyes adapted to a...

Quite the opposite. Titanium has a relatively high coefficient of friction and a structure that makes it susceptible to galling. Titanium rubbing on titanum will gall and eventually seize if there is...

Just order the parts yourself from McCray Optical and do it yourself. It's not difficult.

The only issue that occurs with NOW frames is if the lenses were incorrectly sized. Lenses must be made to size or if anything smaller. If they are oversized, even in the smallest amount, the frame...

It's exactly the same, except you hold your breath while you do it.

Log into your Lindberg Partner account and look under the Technical Info page. It has all the info in video form.

Walman was bought out by Essilor last year. Ditch them. Especially I'd the rep can even tell you what lens design they are using. Plenty of other labs out there that can offer IOT lenses.
