objective opinion on the appropriate lenses for the new frames I'm
buying from giarre.com. The prices may seem a little steep due the the

Has anyone had this preventative treatment to avoid acute narrow angle

Assuming too much close work triggers myopia in some children, I am
looking for a projector that can project a book page onto a screen, to
help my son who love reading so much but is starting to develop myopia
at the age of 8. Much like the transparency projector we all know

It's only of academic use to me, but am curious to know what kind of dioptre
change in prescription is possible when the eye is tested the day after

I'm a 33yo male with

Sorry to keep bugging the group with my RGP's, but things seem fairly
slow anyway.
My RGP fit, in my non-professional opinion, is on the loose side.  When
I blink they go up, then slide back down and hang low.  If I turn my

What amount of astigmatism requires toric lenses to be prescribed? Thanks.

This guy is in serious trouble. He sees a soccer-ball flying through
the air and attempts to hit it with his head. The only problem, it's
