    Very changeable

    I have had at least four pairs with Transitions, and all changed (and still do) significantly. They are not "sunglasses", but are a lot nicer than plain clear lenses outdoors. Sell them for what...

    Effective 1/1/2010, Oregon cut most adults out of vision care too. Those with severe eye conditions such as aphakia and keratoconus will still get help.

    Lab is not talking?

    You need different labs! There are so many from which to choose. Any lab that can't (or won't) quote you a price after hearing the Rx is questionable.

    No way can you get paperless! Your vendors, insurance, customers, etc. won't allow it. Even the HIPAA procedures will hamper you. However, you can reduce paper, and please recycle!:finger:

    Different Thicknesses

    I believe the edge thickness will be different for different finished lens manufactures. Of course it will be different when edged based upon frame's eyesize.
