Hello Fellow Optical Guru's:
How important do you feel it is to have a finished lens inventory? I, as surely many of you, have finish labs in-house. With the trend of "1 hour" service going out and the ability to obtain lenses within a 24 hour period, do you feel it is a benefit or a nuisance to maintain an inventory?
Certainly there are benefits to having lenses in stock, but there are also down sides: time for inventorying and reordering, cost(s), lens advancements, etc.. However, there is something rewarding of a childs' face lighting up when he walks out with his first pair that you made in a matter of minutes.
I have been debating of keeping my inventory or discontinuing and just ordering from the distributor - I receive finish lenses within 24 hours and no shipping fees. Your feedback would be useful. Thank you for your input.
