Oh boy here comes
trouble. There are so many steps in making the proper pair of glasses;
it’s almost magic.
Let’s take some
moments to explain this wonderful product that results for your viewing
pleasure. The first step is a great eye exam with careful attention paid
by the doctor and patient. Yes the patients are responsible for their own
outcome, depending on their responses and physical health. If patients
are pregnant, diabetic, or even tipsy during the exam, outcomes will be varied.
Make sure to be forthcoming with your doctor regarding your state of mind
and/or physical health.
Next crucial step
is the measurements needed to assure your optical center (middle of pupil) is
perfectly aligned with the optical center of the lenses in your new glasses.
This measurement a computer cannot take, they randomly guess because the
frames need to be on your face for this to happen. The optician (makes
your glasses) needs to be certain that all the different levels of prescription
in one pair of glasses need to be exactly aligned to get the best results,
especially for multifocal prescriptions.
Next to last step
is manufacturing your exact prescription with your exact alignments in your
frame. Occasionally the final product needs to be sent back to the lab
for a small 1mm adjustment. Hence the reasons some glasses take a bit
longer then others, don’t yell at your optical staff; they're simply being
precise. The final step is the adjustment of your frames; the optician
provides this service. Online cannot reach out its arms to straighten your
glasses let alone shake your hand for your continued loyalty. So think
twice before saving those extra 30 dollars.
