I actually looked more like Eddie than Diamond Dave back in the day! Lol!
Because they were making sure the promoters were actually reading the contract. ( I didn’t need to cheat). Now, back to your regular program hour..
Labs have always, “Made as ordered”. You order a 60 pd with 10D of prism, you will (should) get 10D at 60mm. Even in the old days, we never differed from order on high Rx’s unless refracted and worn...
^ This is what I always strived for. Folks wanting to work with us. Word of mouth gets out through reps and peers that you have a great work environment. The one thing that always gets me is when you...
It all starts with the employees you hire. I always tried to create a great work environment. Keep it fun, uplifting. Everyone got time off every week, paid, just for how “awesome” they were at work....
All I can say is wow! There’s at least 3 here, as a consumer, I would walk out on with your attitude and policies. I never worked like that in 50 years of optics. My last gig was running 3 locations,...
Applies to all prism. Prism not only displaces viewed object, it also displaces the pupil.
Just google Texas optometry laws, find a link to the state government. It’s all in the Optometry bill.
Doc, I already told you that you’re more than welcome to stay in one of my deer stands on the back 40. 15 ft high elevated view, insulated with cardboard on the inside wall and all the game you can...
OD’s will be replaced with AI before Opticians….(there, I said it.)
Patient uses a wide monitor. That extra cyl will squish it extra so he doesn’t have to turn his head as much….:rolleyes:
I always dissuaded patients, explaining the minuscule % of blue light from monitors, how this was propagated by a single company, that this info has been poo-pooed by real science, etc. If they still...

4th post, 4th pic. Did your patients lenses look like those?
I picked up a hitchhiker the other day. He seemed surprised that I'd pick up a stranger. He asked, "Thanks, but why would you pick me up? How would you know I'm not a serial killer?".
I told him...
My biggest concern is not needing a vertical height. It’s recommended to correct uncomfortable gaze positions by adjust the panto and or vertex and/or nose pad for height. Some frames this could be a...
Krystle, I can most assuredly say the basic exam does not use sin/cos/tan calculations. You won’t see that till the AC. As for oblique meridian calc’s the 1/3 approximation formula for cyl will be...
I thought Quest labs in Fl developed and sells this lens.
I’d be curious to know the level of math involved in the current exam. There has been a calculator ban on it for decades. All math you should be able to do in your head or scratch paper, simple math....
Foggy memory, but I believe Younger bought the railroad tanker of the stuff and started experimenting with ophthalmic lens.

My fav BTO song, Bachman went a little jazzy for a spell, kinda different from their usual hard rockers. Bachman plays great here, my only complaint is...
I wouldn’t discourage you if you are passionate about the field, but becoming a Dentist takes as long, costs as much and your starting pay is almost double. Plus you get to deal with lots of cash...

Support the NAO. They are our educational organization that’s dedicated to advancing ophthalmic knowledge. Well worth the price of admission. Education materials, ( for...
While it’s widely been said a “pulse” is required to be an Optician, there is no said requirement on any books of unlicensed states. In fact, my last employer offered a considerable sum to my...
Highlights from their website:
Dutch company
No local distributors or reps
China/far east manufactured
Ships from Europe, DHL, your expense
Or…Post #8? At least you give the illusion of caring…
