One of our patients brought in a fairly good looking zyl in a hard to find pastel green with a narrow vertical bridge. I thought it fit well until I had to panto it and widen end pieces. The same adjustment on this patient's Gucci was not difficult but this almost $500 frame is not made of the same quality zyl and was quite difficult to adjust. I finally got the adjustment only to have the patient come in the next day. On insertion of her Rx , the eyewire rolled inward on one nasal side,and it really resisted straightening. Before anyone jumps on my adjusting skills, I have 42 years of experience in all sorts of plastics. This one is a zyl but not a quality one for adjusting. Beware Face a Face !!
