Another informative video. I had the pleasure of visiting the Spectacle Factory this week and ordered two pairs of glasses with Robert’s help. Absolutely amazing experience and can’t wait to receive my new glasses and sunglasses. Amazing staff and the whole experience was incredible. From the eye test using advanced Zeiss equipment to the whole process of choosing the frames the lenses the coatings everything.

Greetings Robert!
Another great informative video. I've had heavy prescription eyeglasses most of my life, starting as a teen. My lenses gave me a thinner profile in recent years. However, I still have some overhang as you call it. This video is encouraging to me because it is great to know that I can have eyeglasses that look great even with a challenging Rx. Thanks and cheers! 🍻

Fantastic specs Robert! Those glass lenses are truly incredible.
I love jobs like this. I did one just this week where I worked with a couple of DO's for a lady who was around -20.00 combined but also with 4.00 base out prism. I used this rolled edge technique you mentioned using the same Mainline hand edger you featured in your video. 😂

Many thanks for another informative video, Robert. Thanks to you, I recently opted for Zeiss Smart Life 1.74 lenses for my prescription of +7 varifocals. I went with small, thin, mid-range titanium full rimmed frame as the truly designer ones are all too large in every sense for my petite and older face. Though the lenses and frame combined are definitely light, I’m finding what weight there is is resting entirely on my nose which is quite irritating. Would a small, metal frame be more suitable, perhaps because their sturdier build might distribute the overall weight more evenly? I’m sensing the tiny titanium frames are so ‘non-existent’ all they can do is hand over the lenses to my poor nose. They appear to fit well and be as well adjusted as possible. Cheers for any advice!😀

Getting someone to do a good finishing is important - I'm a -8.5 sphere. The best specs I had were from a sadly now defunct Scottish chain about 20 years ago with 1.74 plastic in Nike Flexon frames, people commented how less chunky they looked. Recently returned to Zeiss 1.74 in a Flexon frame similar to that one and it the result is not as good IMHO.
