[warhunter]

u optometrist can find one la. dun nid find from me. from the start i nv said anything about prevention of disease leh bro. im talking abt the effectiveness of protection on the eye leh. there are results, u go find ok.

Effectiveness in the scientific point of view has to be backed by RCTs

just got back my specs from Yong Ming (KSL, JB) yesterday.

my crizal prevencia lens dun have the crizal word when i blow at it... cos the staff claims that my lens is specially made due to my astig and degree (astig 225, degree 800/900+ both eyes).

although the coating a bit like purplish.

i was given a crizal certificate (not paper form but like those membership card type of material).

hopefully i didn't get a fake lens.

was told that nowadays, more manufacturers will do the engraving on all lenses to prevent consumers from being cheated by dishonest shops

was told that nowadays, more manufacturers will do the engraving on all lenses to prevent consumers from being cheated by dishonest shops

hmm i was told that since my lens is special order... they didn't instruct the manufacturer to do the engraving.

is like that one?

anyway correction, my coating is more like violet color.

when i drive. i notice the glare from other cars is not so glaring as compared to my old specs.

 

[ggzx08]

Any optical shop with attractive range of frames to recommend? How to decide what brand to go for? My degree is 1k each eye... lenses always very thick... sigh...

Hi, recently bought a Crizal transistion len and
received a 'certificate of authenticity' with it.
Strangely the cert does not mention anything about Crizal.
How does the original cert look like?

see mine below...

this is what i get from Yong Ming (KSL, Johor)

certificate of authencity (front)

certificate of authencity (back)

lens packaging

violet lens coating

also not sure if mine is genuine... cos no crizal engraving on the lens when i blow hot air onto it...

but google image shows the coating looks similar to mine...

new to progressive lens

i noticed that the two zeiss marking on my new progressive lens are not parallel. the markings on the left lens is parallel, but the right lens is not. is this a misalignment problem or it ok and just branding stuff. this is my first progressive lens, so i don't know what is normal. i have that floating sense when looking down (reading) and moving my head left to right. but when looking straight or up, don't have this issue.
