Hilcos glass beads do an awesome job. However I prefer the heat of a frame warmer, not the beads.

Well, turns out that 14 D. was split between two eyes. CRAZY! No way in hell that we could run this with what we have. Secondly, turns out he was a balance in his left eye so this did away with the...

Well we also have a 108 generator that needs coolant .. But I'm half tempted to turn the job down. Or I will tell the doctor that I'll put as much prism In as the sgx allows. My reaction was the...

I work in a gerber lab and I'm looking for reccomendinations on running a +12 with 14 base in .. On a sgx generator .. Anyone know a good lens to run this with?

Brave? Possibly. What is hurting is how managment know the lab is being ran poorley and will do nothig. I've tried a positive attitude and giving our LMa chance but when I try to help he already...

For everyone wondering I work at dr Bizers in Clarksville, and man is it a joke of a lab and store. I've seen wholesale labs that run better with two people running the whole damn thing!

It kills me and the tech with 25 years to even work there. No matter how perfect we run a job, or how many good jobs we slam through. Something is always in the background undoing it.

One last...

Ok sorry for leaving a few things out.

1. Retail people, only 1/10 can use a lensometer, let alone pull lenses.
2. Corporate does not want techs/manager to physically "fix" any machine, only...

I work for a company that offers one hour service. We run a mostly Gerber lab (Step1,Step2,SGX Generator) with an Optronics 7E Edger, a Professional Edger, 2 Coburn cylinder machines, and 2 Coburn...

We have the same problem. What I've found is that some lab techs at my store have a problem blocking a lens correctly. Wax has been pumped outside of the chiller ring, in-proper pressure has been...

Thanks for your replies.
Here's a few more questions.

In your lab do you run trivex with an OC height?

And if so, surface with it? Or just adjust on finish?
I ask this because our lab does...

I just have a few questions that I would like everyone s opinions on.

1. For those who use wax for surface blockers instead of aluminum alloy, How often would you change the wax (not reuse but...

I wound up ordering a set of X-cel High Index -2.25 front curve. The lens blanks we had in stock at the time weren't thick enough to do both surfacing, Thanks for your input though!

Ok so here's the deal. I am trying to do a bi-concave lense but my lab uses Gerber's Innovations program to run throughout the generator. I could let specials lab do it but it's been two times and...

Stick with the 1.67 index you had in mind, and anything with free-form. Prescribed prism seems to have a better effect on the patients eyes through a free-form lens.
