    Need help identifying a prog I couldn't find on the online lookups, or in my book.

    hi - I had a progressive come in yesterday that had an equilateral triangle as the mark on the nasal side, and a circle on the temporal side - no numbers for the add, no material markings, nothing but the 180's

    Any ideas?

    Probably a house design. I'd say equal with entry level digitals.
    Have I told you today how much I hate poly?

    most likely a Zeiss OEM. Did they come from Kaiser?

    I only asked since your location said Beaverton.

    A 4 drop Zeiss OEM. A darn good private label design, not an entry level. One is compensated, one is non-compensated.

    It looked like it had a VERY wide add, do you know if it's available in a polarized? I'm going to be making sunglasses for this patient, and he'd indicated he really liked these, they looked really good, but it was weird that they had no info on them.

    Also, do you know which particular Labs offer them? I usually use CSC for my Zeiss stuff.

    I would call your Zeiss Lab or Zeiss Rep, if they know their stuff they will guide you well...
