I do look for twist, vertical imbalance, PD's dead on, etc. If my lab ever said "oh, it's okay for it to be that way" I wouldn't be pleased. I am also a strong believer in accuracy down to the details.
All the 360's are coming from TX, right? So you're getting them from the same lab I am. Mine routinely haven't been crisp in the lensometer, or it is on one eye and not on the other. But I kept reordering the first few pair asking them to get it to read properly, and they continued to come in reading wrong. Several of them definately had about a quarter of cyl in a lens that was supposed to be spherical. Finally, after waiting 2 months and remake after remake, I contacted my reps who told me it should not read properly. Then, I thought, Ok, let's give it a try (Doc said to go ahead and dispense them) so I did, and they all came back complaining of terrible vision.
What am I missing?
