    Shamir Workspace

    Hi everyone,

    I would like some opinions and some experiences.

    In our office we typically use Hoya Tact lenses, but our shamir rep is convincing us to try the Workspace. Has anyone had any experience with this lens?

    Thanks everyone!

    Still waiting for mine to arrive.

    I'll let you know when it arrives.

    Yes, I have used both the workspace as well as the computer. I don't know if you are asking for any specifics regarding the workspace, I can tell you that the patient has been a previous office wearer and that they seem to be more pleased with the performance of the workspace over the office.

    I dispensed my second set of computer lenses last night and just got off the phone with the patient. She works in front of two monitors and her actual working distance is much further then she had originally thought. I am having her provide me with three additional measured distances at her work station and we will see if the computer with the additional information will work for her, or if the workspace will offer her a better design solution.

    Two thumbs up!

    Second day of wearing the Workspace and I "wowed* when I put them on at how sharp the vision is even in the distance but at 56 I still have a little accommodation left and am a mild rx +.50 -.25x120 +1.00 -1.00x80.

    I fit to center pupil but will fit future pairs at base of pupil.

    Sitting at the computer is just peachy with really no discernible head movement required with a monitor that's at eye level. Very natural feeling gaze with minimal swim at the peripheral. Some one with multiple monitors will still have to turn their head.

    I'll try a few on others with different rx's but from this experience I now have a new favorite computer progressive!
