It was someone else in the optical industry. Definitely not a fortune cookie. :) I always Backside AR because it's my understanding that light can hit the back of the lens and enter the eye. Also...

I am so happy I found this thread! I also have an adult patient with these kinds of needs as well, I'm going to check out Dos Uno as well as Nano Vista

We were just discussing this in office! I always do a backside AR, whether polarized (99.4%) as well as the infrequent tinted only lens.

I've heard a school of thought that you shouldn't backside...

I notice that a lot of patients who come in wearing prism are aware they have it; many are not, but I also attribute this to the Solo cup at the waterfall issue---- patients get so much information...

The website seems to be down now--- I've loved and utilized this resource since you introduced me to it! Any chance of renewal, or does anyone else have a resource similar?

This is all great feedback, thank you for sharing your experience with me!

Oof, I FEEL this and it hurts! I am fortunate enough to be part of a practice where we put quality/independent frame lines at the top of our priority list. I personally love

LA Eyeworks - Playful...

Can no-one take a good picture of the patient wearing the frame and send to you? If you have the frame in hand, you should be able to measure and using wisdom/experience get closer than any other...

SO, I've wanted Lindberg for years (because I passionately despise Silhouette to a degree that goes beyond the archaic method of speech), we just moved into a *beautimous* new locale, made our picks,...

Looking for good options for kids, tweeners and teens-- we don't do Lux, not interested in Nike. We have Babiators, safety types, looking into Julbo---

Who else do you guys use for this? Has...

We have lots of extra nosepads that are brand new, going un-used! Would be happy to pass these along at steep discounts plus first class shipping. We can do the transaction through Paypal. Priced...

Great feedback: I completely agree! AND I totally agree with you that Silhouette is out of place with Bevel, Face a Face, etc.

Unfortunately we don't have our own lab in house.... YET! Something...

Oh sure, ok. (Haha) Well we definitely have the option, I just am wanting to get some feedback from those of you in the know!

I can't seem to find any current discussion on this topic! I realize that this style is pretty dated and always try to update into a lightweight metal/half rimless whenever possible; but there are...

Thank you! Yes, they have one frame that hits what I'm looking for-- still looking for better options if possible. Thanks again!

Hello wise opti-board members!

We often have a need for 44-48 (and sometimes even 50) eye sized rubbery/sturdy frames with "keepers" much like the design below:

Do we have any VisionWorks opticians here? I'm curious as to what this lens actually is, as we all know it is SOME lens company's design, even if it is privately branded

It does! Thanks so much!

Hello eyewear gurus! I am wondering if anyone has brought in Kirk & Kirk, especially the Kaleidoscope collection. Word on the street is that the vibrant colors are achieved by using acrylic and that...

Can anyone help me identify this Pupilometer? I was just gifted it and was hoping to track down a users' manual!

Thanks much in advance.

Does the Distometer measure panto as well as vertex distance?

I know that Gold & Wood will do custom designs; not sure if they will for a non-account, though.

At our location, luckily we don't fill many warranties, but it gives that extra security and peace of mind to the consumer that I think is really valuable. Like the safety net for the acrobats at the...

Good ideas here; we actually just launched a "Spring Overtock Sale". Decorated a round table, ads on Facebook, local Facebook groups, email blast and word of mouth. We are running it the whole month...

Prodesign and Silhouette are solid lines for sure! I love ProDesign for covering the metals niche, and they do it so well-- especially for petites and small bridges, which can be such difficult fits....
