It been quite a while since I last actively work in the eyecare industry.
Since then it seems alot of lab processing has been moved to Mexico and beyond. Does anyone have an idea as how large the percentage is??

Thanks Chris,
Back when I helped open Hoya Lens of Amerrica, Essilor was buying labs like crazy and I built Hoya's Lab in Bethel and we bought 14 more nationwide before I left.
A few year later when I got a new set of 1.71's Hoya had moved 1.71 processing back to Thialand.
In my new postion with the federal government one of my factories has an optical lab. I can do non-government work as long as it keeps work from moving offshore or brings it back. So I am starting to reseach potential market size etc..
Thanks for the input.
Pat
