Capabilities
Lab Management
Optical lab management is a crucial aspect of the eyewear industry, ensuring the efficient and accurate production of prescription lenses and eyeglass frames. A well-run optical lab is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail, streamlined processes, and adherence to quality standards. Our Lab manager oversees the entire production cycle, from receiving customer prescriptions and selecting appropriate lens materials to the precision grinding and coating of lenses. They maintain a well-organized inventory of lens blanks and frame components and manage our skilled team of technicians.
Technology
Digital processing uses physical tools and a pre-programmed digital file to surface a job. This technique of processing eliminates the limitations that traditional processing has in terms of the number of designs that can be created and complex of curves.
Digital processing (also known as “freeform” processing) allows for the ability to customize each lens individually to each wearer providing improved vision. Digital surfacing technology allows labs to produce higher quality lenses utilizing more fitting measurements including pupil height, pupil distance, vertex distance, panto-scopic tilt, frame wrap, eye movement, and more. Digital processing allows us to compensate the prescription throughout the entire lens surface and not just the center of the lens which gives the patient a wider viewing area at all distances. Digital lenses also have greater versatility when it comes to frame fitting, allowing more variety in lens shapes in regards to prescription.
Quality Assurance
Quality assurance is a critical component of our lab; dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of precision and excellence in the production of prescription lenses and eyeglasses. It encompasses a range of meticulous procedures designed to ensure that each lens is ground, coated, and assembled with the utmost accuracy and consistency. Our quality assurance involves rigorous inspection and testing protocols that verify prescription accuracy, lens durability, and visual clarity. This commitment to quality not only guarantees that customers receive eyewear that meets their vision needs but also fosters trust and confidence in the optical business. By upholding rigorous quality standards and continually refining production processes, our lab can provide eyeglasses that will satisfy yours and your patients needs consistantly.
