Has anyone had any experiences (good or bad) with Varilux Physio progressive
lenses?
Thanks,

Please educate me a bit.
I priced single vision, regular plastic lenses (ie, well drinks, not
call drinks) at both Walmart and Lenscrafters.  The cheapest starters
that LC had were $50 more than Walmart.  Is there a quality difference

Could anyone recommend a good eye doctor in the Los Angeles area, especially
towards the west side beach area (Santa Monica, etc.)? Someone very
knowledgeable and experienced in fitting different kinds of contact lenses,

Thanks
