Upon querying why a lens was not hand edged I was told the machine does it automatically now.. which is great, so long as it does do it. This would begin to explain why specifically saftey bevels look so shoddy, and in general hit and miss
What approach are other professionals taking in dealing with thier lab's, to ensure the quality?
I only ask a simple thing from the labs I use - Please make it the right power, with the right centres, well mounted and set up, clean and tidy, and safe to wear. It is so hard to get all those things in one place... am I just going to have to dust of my tech coat?
Did i say Rimless?
