    There's a bunch of A/R that could be used that is both good quality and very affordable to the lab/practice to use. I wouldn't ever let that job go without it - too important for an Rx like that. To each there own. What was the material and lens type? Good job on the lens thickness. What's the A on that frame and the pt's pd if we can ask here?

    It wasnt, sorry Just felt like it at $272 retail for a -16.00

    Frame PD and patient PD both 62. oc 2mm up used 1.67.

    Patient did not have A.R. on old glasses, did not want to be dilated, did not want IOPs checked, had a little argument with the doctor over her need for cat Sx. She knew what she wanted, what do I know?

    Looks good man! :cheers: While I'd personally never have polished edges on my lenses due to the glare factor, they sure do look nice on someone else's pair! LOL Good thing she wanted small frames.

    I'll edge a high-minus over a high-plus any day.

    GOOD SHOW! Looks similar to a pr. of -16.00-4.00's I did a few years back. I kept the work-up around for a while to remind me what my lil ole retail lab could do.
