Awesome! Thank you. I found Purilens and we've ordered some to check it out. The pricing is a bit more than we were expecting after the A&H option, but if Purilens is as good as I've read, it should...

Our office was a huge fan Arm & Hammer's compressed air can of sterile saline for a number of reasons, it was the product we recommended to all of our contact lens wearing patients. We recently found...
Thank you all for the information and the discussion. We're going to let our patient know to contact the company that dispensed the CR-39 lenses.
That isn't the intent. Not refusing to give the patient their Rx nor did we refuse to help them with the glasses they purchased somewhere else. And we aren't the only place they can get poly or...
Is that based on any legal authority or just what is done? I've never come across an Rx that was THAT specific and if there were notes made for options that I felt were not needed I've contacted the...
The problem, in my eyes, is that we have no way of knowing if this was an isolated incident or something that is commonly done.
On every Rx that leaves the office we have a space for the doctor to sign that says "Dispense as Written" and another that says "Substitution Permissible". The copy the patient left with had the...
Tried searching for this topic but couldn't find anything related to this situation, so hopefully I can get some help and not ask something already addressed.
We recently had a patient take his Rx...
Thank you all for the feedback and suggestions. I did take the segmented multifocal idea to the doctor, and he knows it is the best option as far as optics are concerned, but he also knows the...
By "worse" I meant "sacrifice the range of vision that he is used to in a progressive". I realize that segmented multifocals or even single vision would give the patient the "best" vision with the...
The patient has been wearing PALs for decades. It is not in the best interest of a 60+ year old man to be told that in order to see better (more add power and increased prism) he has to see worse...
That doesn't take into account that prism factor, sadly. I believe the lenses suggested stop at 4 diopters, but cannot confirm that anywhere.
The Unity PLx might work, waiting to hear back from...
I need a progressive lens that can accomodate a 375 add power and 6 diopters of prism. We have a patient that cannot compromise either spec, otherwise I would drop the add to a 350 and go with an AO...
Found this article really interesting and thought it was worth a share. Can't say I disagree with recommending this profession to people, but only people that I know can handle it since not everyone...
Just wanted to thank @SharonB for the help with the articles that I wrote. Glad that I got some response from the community here.
I have dealt with something similar to this a few times. Funny how a "professional" telling a patient something fixes everything, while the glasses stay the same.
I have written a couple of informative articles that I want to use in my office (both physical in the office and on our website) and am looking for some objective peers to review them for relevance,...
Having used OfficeMate, My Vision Express, Compulink and Crystal; I'd have to say that Crystal is the best blend of features and stability with average support. OME was really good for having a lot...
