  • High Base/High Cyl Progressive

    Can anyone recommend a prog. design that will perform well in a high base curve... even with high astigmatism. I need a base 8 and the Rx is -2.75/-2.75. It needs to be a material suitable for rimless and polarized. Money is not an issue. My first thought was the attitude, but in the UK they will only do it <-5.00 combined. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    The Zeiss Individual Wrap would be an option.

      i would consider that might be better placed on a 6 base the backside curve is going to be over 13.00 which is a nightmare for a lab! if edged with an edger with a wrap bevel will work just fine and be a better looking pair of glasses.

          Ice-Tech aren't available in the UK, Shamir said they can't do it, but will the Image give good distance performance? (near vision is not very important here).

            Thanks, but Zeiss said no.

              As long as you can arrange your own shipping to the UK (with UPS, etc.), ICE-TECH will ship the lens to you with a credit card payment! Your script is actually a pretty common one for us to make in an 8-base wrap. Let me know if you'd like to go with our PAL optimized for wrap designs.

                Thank you! It may sound like a simple Rx but every company I've enquired with here in the UK has said no... there just isn't a decent sunglass market here as people think they are for warm weather - which we don't really get - rather than bright weather, which we definitely get, albeit sporadically. Anyway, please could you PM me and advise about the cost of the lenses (in poly and 1.67 if possible) as well as shipping. We've really struggled with this job so thank you for your attention. If it's cost effective you may well be getting many more orders from us.

                    Best option I've ever worked with was a good lab with Auto II atti and a careful lab, I'm sure there is something better out there but I've worked with
