    Very long vertex distances

    Do you do anything different for clients with very long vertex distances? I've had two clients last week with a vertex distance of 20-22mm. They prefer wearing the frame this way so there was no way to make it any shorter (same for any other frame). I ordered regular 14mm corridor Hoya Mystyles, lowered the fitting height 1mm and slightly upped the frame's inclination to about 12°. For POW measurements I entered 10° since I lowered the fitting height 1mm. Both clients are low hyperopes with 2-2.25 adds.

    Should I have done anything differently?
