    Need Short Corridor PAL for One Hour Fomat

    I am considering stocking the new AO Ultra Compact, but have heard mixed reviews. I have a great lab, but Essilor will not qualify me because I also have a dispensary. What do you guys reccommend? I would like something that will fit 14mm to 17mm seg heights.

    Polycore Micro comes to mind...;) Minimum seg ht of 16mm, soft aspheric design, CR-39, mid-index SunSensors and Polycarbonate.

    I don't understand the reasoning from essilor. I see other dispensaries w/ on-site labs dispensing the ovation, natural and other essilor products. I would say the smallfit, if you can get it. Only available in poly. The other one I would add to the mix is the Minuo from Excelite (TOG). Available in CR, transisitions plastic, 1.60 and Trivex only. We have had great luck w/ the Minuo and Smallfit.
    Compact ultra receives mixed reviews. They are being nice.
