Very well said @DanLiv

The fact that the evil empire thinks this is a good idea means that we should not be doing it.

Who is to say that 426 is the best spectrum of light to block? That's the problem with these studies, there is no agreed upon standard.

Some good info, thank you. Was kind of what I was looking for when I talked to our rep.

I think both things can be true, embrace the dissonance. You can have things that you price out on every pair of glasses and they are as close to automatic as possible, but they are still added on to...

I fail to see what the esophageal sphincter has to do with this :unsure:

Great insight, thank you DanLiv

Yeah looked at a wrong site for abbe value, looks like commonly it is 42. My mistake.

Well I heard there is a some sort of a cure--though it is somewhat controversial. And the AOA has not given their blessing as of yet, but the kids love it! Blue Roll... it helps with eyes that have...

Haven't worked a ton with 1.60, the abbe value difference doesn't seem to be a great difference in comparison to the poly vs trivex debate.

From what I'm seeing 1.60 with an abbe of 36 and 1.67...

I would do a digital aspheric lens from whatever lab you work with in 1.67 or 1.74 material with a nice AR coating. Hoya iD single vision or Eyezen start/+0 or Shamir Autograph 3 SV. However the most...

You'll be like: :eek::help:

Agreed!

And with the insurance... I feel your pain!

I've never NOT talked to the customer about prism if I see it on their prescription. Trying to set the expectation that when they get the glasses there is going to be a definite adjustment period. So...

I'd say about 95% of our spectacle orders are collected up front. If they elect to pay half we collect the rest of the money at/or before dispense. Of our accounts receivables almost none of them are...

If you have a local VSP lab maybe call them and ask who the rep is for the area. You will most likely have to listen to a presentation on why you should sell Unity everything, but they'll bring you...

So many buzz words that all these companies use, and there is no great resource for how to compare progressive lenses from different companies. Especially with exophoria, you are better off trying...

That it how I do it as well. I think the idea of add-ons brings to mind a used car salesman-esque sales style. I don't think that is what you are saying but I can see where someone might think...

If a customer asks me what they are getting I will explain exactly what they are getting and why it is beneficial. But I am always going to start with AR on an any pricing sheet, and make the...

I've only billed for plano sunglasses after LASIK once like 3 years ago and I don't remember having an issue with it then but I was less involved in the billing 3 years ago. Do you have a VSP rep you...

Our Essilor rep came in and let us know of a new lens they have, a progressive lens for the emerging presbyope, Libery 3.0. It only comes with an add up to +1.50 and it is a K level progressive lens....

Very much agreed, I love Sapphire.

I wouldn't make a habit of this, but if your doctor writes an Rx of plano -0.50 x 90 and the later they come back and get a new Rx of plano -0.25 x90 that would be allowed. Because it was billed...
