Watty, I have a question about the spray bottle. One of the Santinelli manuals that I read gave an "Important Caution" that you should not spray water into the side and top seals of the "lens...
We are investigating the possibility of dispensing poly PAL's as part of our VSP IOF program. Currently we only use this program for FSV lenses. Anyone have any tips for how to make this work for...
I have had good luck with FCI plugs.

Thanks. Actually I discovered that by simply connecting the broken tracer to the edger the problem was solved. Strange but true.
I have recently had a tracer problem with my 7070. My experience has been that these problems generally require a new tracer. In the case of the 7070 your only options are buying a used tracer. ...
Just bought a used Santinelli 9000. This edger has been very well maintained and I would like to do whatever it takes to keep it that way. I heard that you should spray the inside of the edger...
I have a Santinelli 7070 with NO tracer attached. I am trying to assess the other functions of the edger to verify if everything else works OK. However, when I put in a practice poly lens using a...
Our ophthalmology office takes VSP, Eyemed and Davis. I was recently looking at what Eyemed reimburses for exams and noted that a lot of the time they paid $30-40. I really don't understand how any...
Anyone have a tracer for a santinelli 7070 PBLM. This unit takes the older style tracer.
Is this edger still available?
We have been doing our blocking with an old manual AIT blocker. It takes a little time and there are a certain number of errors but it seems to work. Recently my optician has been asking about...
A used Santinelli LE9000SX has become available from a colleague in my area. It has about 100K cuts but apparently is working fine (I didn't test it personally). The cost of the unit would be...
Seems like the LEX is too new of a model to have developed motor and spindle problems! My understanding is that these things occur after considerable use ie: many years and tens of thousands of cuts.
how would this edger compare to the 9000 (or to a refurbished 7070?). I also have one in the area that is becoming available but am wondering if it is not overkill for a small office that does 7-9...
I stumbled across this website while doing research on inventory software for my optical shop. I specifically did not want any big, bundled programs but only pure inventory. Therefore, I was open...
Thanks Craig,
I've looked into Quickbooks (I use it for my financial/accounting needs) and I'm skeptical that it would be a good inventory manager. Actually, I find Quickbooks a fairly difficult...
I'm not sure what the strings are so far, but I have just researched it online and it looks very promising. Are you using it?
I just looked at Wink's free software on their website. So far it looks excellent. I've had the opportunity to demo similar software and this is the one I liked the best. Since it's free it seems...
Anyone have any experience with software purely designed for optical inventory? I definitely do not want full EMR, POS, billing or any other practice management bundles. Would it be better to go...
We are an ophthalmology practice and we charge $45 for routine contact lens analysis (ie: patient is already wearing CTL and has no changes), $119 for new fit and training for spherical lenses...
Our office does a lot of VSP and we enter all the data into their proprietary website. As far as I can tell the process is pretty easy. Unfortunately, we have to enter all the info all over again...
The Atlas is model 900 and runs on windows 3.1
This is all older equipment but in perfect working condition and at a fraction of the cost of the newer generation versions. Office is in So. Cal and all equipment can be tested onsite.
