Hi,

First of all sorry if something like this has been posted before; I did search but did not find anything. I'm a dispensing optician working as a lab technician part time and training as an optometrist.

My dad's rx is:

RE: -7.00 DS
LE: -6.00/-0.50 x 175
Add +2.25

My dad used to wear Varilux Comfort which he loved. His optometrist changed him to a Panamic which he didnt like as much. He now wears a Physio which is better but he still preferred the Comfort. Now I'm thinking of going for a 1.67 Comfort Advans. The problem is is that he has chosen a rimless frame with a 4 base front curve and he wants to match that curve/wrap around look. If i were to go for a 4 base Comfort Advans 1.67 would that curvature cause more distortion? Usually I would have used a 1.75 base but he wants the curvature!

My question is is that would this curvature with this rx cause any discomfort (excuse the pun)? Any ideas?

Regards

Adil
