    I think in the U.S. they are only available in Life Rx (not Transitions). Someone correct me if I have old info... but I think that's it!
    Lost and confused in an optical wonderland!

    Hey guys,

    Should've searched the board better, found an old thread and like you said Sharon, Vision-ease do the life rx series.

    Many thanks

    I got the info from the latest Frames Data Lenses book page 177. Spherical 74mm BC .50 1.25 2.25 3.325 4.25 5.25 6.25 7.25 8.25

    I didn't see it on the site either. I think it is a new release. Maybe not available outside the USA ?

    Try calling Younger Optics 310-783-7533.

    RX is most likely irrelevant. Note the OP is listed as a lens manufacturer. Maybe getting a request from an account?

    Or are you looking to be a mensch?

    Made me look that one up...according to the Urban dictionary, "a mensch is someone to admire or emulate" so I guess i am looking to be one.
    My purpose in asking was to determine if a pair of + 0.50 spheres or close was being made in a trifocal? Certainly not a child and most likely not going to play tennis in them, then why bother to find it when its readily available in CR 39.

    These days it also translates from Yiddish to mean "a stand up guy". I thought you might be offering to make a pair and send them to him vendor to vendor. I assume the need is a safety issue.

    Anyway we're probably going to have to wait until tomorrow to get an answer as it's pub time in the UK.

    its always pub time in the UK!
    It’s so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don’t say it.

    Did someone say Pub?!
    Yes it was a request from a customer, I don't bother to ask the reason why. I just track them down with all your help! :)
