    So I've always wondered.... What is up with the W. Wollaston base-curve lens series? It gets mentioned in almost any base curve tutorial without any further satisfactory explanation. You mean to...

    Wooo boy this "white paper" is wordy AF. This feels like when you have a paper do and you need to pad the word count.

    This assumes a +2.50 add correct? So If it's like a +2.25 add then shave off a quarter from all those powers you listed?

    So IIRC 1 prism diopter will move an object 1cm at 1meter. that works on both sides of the lenses, but I thought it was only a cosmetic thing. wtf. Somebody needs to draw this out

    So to be clear if I had a patient with a 5 BU and a 5 BD pal rx I would move the right lens down about 1.5mm and the left lens up about 1.5mm. And this is something that is done every time, correct?

    Assuming it's split, 7.5 BO is not that bad especially if it's plano. As far as the different PALs go, I BELIEVE(would love to be corrected if i'm wrong!!!) all lenses will get essentially treated...
  14. What reason is there to prescribe differnt cyl across multiple prescriptions?

    Got a patient with three RXs (near, comp, dist)

    Dist

    -1.00 -1.00 *090

    Comp

    You would know better than I would about the diameter for the phoroptor.
