False, it is available in a clear mid index, many photocromic color mid index and OP-85 which is similar to poly. If someone orders anything other than the standard plastic material lens you would still have to order it surfaced from a lab right? Only if they want glass. Only about 45% of our jobs are plastic so would the Opticast system really be worth it? ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT. THE AVERAGE COST FOR ANY LENS IS ABOUT $10. With the new full yield warrantee, you will have no breakage!!!
2. When you say premium progressives you mean proprietary progressives. Not Varilux, Zeiss, Shamir, Sola etc... Very True, i should have been more clear. It is a proprietary lens, I wear varilux panamic and i experience no difference in vision. So then again how is this really worth it when you're fitting a progressive that really hasn't been experienced throughout the optical community how do I know its really a premium progressive or one that would be comparable to the real Premium Progressive that I generally sell. I will make you a pair to see for yourself
Just a couple of questions I've had about casting systems. Don't want people to think they are perfect. There are limitations on casting systems aren't there?
