    Need help ordering lenses from Manufacturer

    Hi

    I am trying to order lenses from a manufacturer but do not have the experience. I know how to prescribe glasses but do not have the know how when it comes to things like base etc. Looking for an optician or experienced lab tech who is willing to help me fill out the forms. I can send the prescription.

    The manufacturer will not help you out? Do you have a lens clock? How have you been ordering? Do you do your own in house finishing work? Do you send frames to your lab? If you really need help email me at: david@luxe-lab.com. Shouldn't be a problem to run through a couple of scripts with you.

    With tounge in cheek.... I am looking for an ophtalmologist who can help me refract one of my clients. I have no experience in this matter and need someone to fill in the form. With no disrespect meant to the good doctor, this is one of the major problems with the optical trade (and other industries). Everybody is trying to do everybody elses job. You are a qualified doctor , stick to what you know best. Honestly IMO you should not be anywhere near dispensing eyeglasses. Similar to opticians doing refractions, that's not their job....optometrist wanting to surgury, etc. etc. When will we get togeather and start respecting each others expertise.
