    Extra Thick High Index Semi's

    Hey all,

    Can anyone point me in the right direction, I'm trying to source high index extra thick SFSV for some complex jobs I have received.
    1.67/1.74's would be great.

    Thanks for any help!

    As far as I can see, they don't provide extra thick ET on higher bases?

    I'll send them an email now then!

    EDIT: OK no, they don't offer anything higher than a 1.55!
    Any other ideas please anyone?
