    Confused Lens Form Software

    Darryl's Excel based application I believe allowed you to visualize the lens form of lenses designed taking into account curvature and desired center thickness etc. I cannot get that Excel based application to run anymore as I have Excel 2007 on my current computer and it will not run the old VB programming. Is there any other software that is not too expensive that achieves the same thing?

    Thanks,

    Kevin Jackson

    Try his Spectacle Optics program in the downloads section. Or you could always rewrite his code and update it to work with 2007.

    *Dave at OptiVision has a web based tracer integration package that's awesome.
