Eyewear Lens Catalog 2019 Eyewear Lens Catalog 2019 Seven Reasons your eyewear should come from Fig Garden Optometry: 1. Personalized Design - we “design” your eyewear, selecting the material, color, special treatments and overall performance. 2. Great selection of frame styles - With over 800 frames in our inventory, our consultants will find the perfect style, size and color to fit your “look” and price range. 3. We stand behind our prescription - If you don’t “love” the glasses we made for you, we will listen, evaluate and make any changes necessary. 4. Lifetime adjustments and repairs - Replacement of screws, nose-pads as well as lifetime adjustments are always free! 5. Digital measurement system - Exact placement of the powers according to the shape, fit and angle of the frame you have chosen. 6. No Fault Protection Plan Available - If purchased, it extends the manufacturer 30-day warranty to one-year replacement for a low co- payment. 7. Vision for Someone in Need - Through our I Care & Share program - with every pair of eyewear you receive from us, someone in need, either locally or overseas will also receive an exam and eyewear! Eyeglasses provided outside of Fig Garden Optometry: You have a right to your eyeglass prescription and, as a patient at Fig Garden Optometry (FGO), you will always be provided with a copy. We hope you'll want to purchase your eyeglasses from our office and we believe we offer the best value available when you consider service, quality and price. If you decide to shop elsewhere for glasses, we certainly understand and we will be pleased to continue to provide your eye examinations and eye health care. Local opticians and optical shops generally do a good job of filling our prescriptions, but we have some concern with the use of eyeglass vendors over the Internet. Fitting eyeglasses properly involves precise measurements, unbiased advice based on your needs and skillful adjustments of the frame and lenses. HOWEVER, online/internet vendors do not actually meet with you in person they can't provide those services. We provide all the optical services at no additional cost for patients who buy eyeglasses at FGO, but we can't provide them for glasses purchased elsewhere. To avoid confusion and disappointment with glasses purchased elsewhere, here is a list of services we provide and those we do not. Please check with the eyeglass vendor to determine return and refund policies in the event problems occur. We provide only two services for eyeglasses purchased outside of our office: 1. PD or pupillary distance – a measurement of the distance between your eyes taken with a pupilometer, not a ruler. This will be given with your eyeglass prescription upon request. 2. Prescription verification – we will verify the basic lens parameters in new glasses to see if it matches your prescription. We will also recheck the refraction test to confirm the prescription is correct if necessary. This will be done at no charge within 30 days of a new eyeglass prescription. We will not troubleshoot optical measurements taken by others. Visual problems may result if a correct prescription is made with inaccurate optical measurements. Correction or changes in the glasses will be up to you and the eyeglass seller. The following services or measurements are not available from FGO if you purchase glasses elsewhere; these measurements should be provided by the person selling the glasses. • Segment height (bifocals) • Ongoing adjustments • Vertical optical center (best vision) • Minor repairs • Eye size, Bridge size, temple length • Education and training on lens and • Frame model and color frame features and care • Lens material and index • Multifocal design and brand • Eyeglass dispensing adjustment Eyewear Needs Daily-wear: The “go to” pair of glasses you rely upon Sun-wear: Fresno has almost 200 sunny days a year 5th among all large cities in the US It is dangerous to drive with GLARE Work-wear: Today’s work environment is unique Computers, phones, iPads AND paper A unique lens making work more productive Spare-wear: We have spare batteries, spare tires...

After 30 days, if the protection plan is not purchased, any replacement items are at regular fees. Protection Plan: $25 at time of order, $50 at time of delivery of eyewear $75 after delivery but before one year. Good for one full year from the date of the EXAMINATION*. When you have a need, you bring in the damaged eyewear and pay a $25 co-payment for a new same-item replacement. This is a one-time replacement: one time for frame, one time for lenses. LOSS or THEFT is NOT COVERED. If you only need lenses or frame replaced at separate times, the $25 at time of need is collected “per incident” - if you replace both at the same time, the fee is $25 for both. The plan is also available for patients putting new lenses in their own frame (but only lenses are covered). It is not available for Active or Value Eyewear purchases. Eyewear Opportunities Details Time Period: These courtesy discounts (except for contact lens patients- see below) will be available for 30 days from the day of the eye examination. Fees must be paid when ordered. First Pair: First pair will be pair of highest Usual and Customary Fee (U&C fee). Next Pair(s): Additional pair(s) will be second highest U&C fee. All subsequent pair at 30% off U&C fee Limitations: The courtesy adjustments ABOVE only apply to complete purchases of new frame and new lenses. Frames must be purchased from our inventory. Lens only purchases are not eligible for the courtesy, nor do they count as a “pair” These courtesy adjustments do not apply to Value or Active Eyewear, nor do Value or Active Eyewear purchases count as a “pair.” Insurance: These courtesy adjustments do not apply to any product being billed to an insurance. However, glasses being billed to insurance do count as “a pair” Value Eyewear Package Single: Complete pair of single-vision prescription for $118 Bifocal: Complete pair of bifocal prescription for $168 No-Line: Complete pair of no-line progressive addition for $308 Details: Lens material is standard polycarbonate or standard plastic Entry Level No-Glare is INCLUDED (reduce by $20 if removed) Frames can be chosen from a limited selection of special inventory High Power lenses are charged an additional $32 Solid tint can be added for $28 Selected sports frame can be added for $68 Transitions or Polarized can not be added Not eligible for the Protection Plan Program 2019 This page intentionally left blank.

    Contact Lens Discomfort, Vision Correction Preferences, and Accommodative Treatment in Presbyopic and Non-Presbyopic Contact Lens Wearers Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Erin Marie Rueff, OD, MS Graduate Program in Vision Science The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee Melissa Bailey, OD, PhD, Advisor Donald Mutti, OD, PhD Teng Leng Ooi, PhD Loretta Szczotka-Flynn, OD, PhD ii Copyrighted by Erin Marie Rueff 2018 iii Abstract Discomfort is the most cited reason for dissatisfaction with and discontinuation of contact lens wear. Most discomfort is attributed to dry eye-type etiologies, but uncomfortable contact lens wearers commonly show few objective signs of dryness, and treatments aimed at eliminating dryness often fail. Uncomfortable contact lens wearers, however, also report symptoms that are similar to binocular vision and accommodative disorders. Research in our laboratory suggested that uncomfortable wearers have an increased incidence of accommodative insufficiency and led us to hypothesize that contact lens discomfort is influenced by symptoms associated with visual discomfort and accommodative fatigue. The projects described in this dissertation sought to better understand how accommodative decline in presbyopes affects comfort and contact lens discontinuation and how alleviation of accommodative demand in non-presbyopes via a multifocal contact lens affects discomfort and satisfaction with contact lens wear. Presbyopes, a group with known accommodative insufficiency, are also known for being particularly uncomfortable contact lens wearers. Few studies, however, have specifically addressed presbyopic reasons for contact lens discontinuation. The first experiment in this dissertation describes a survey study that aimed to determine why presbyopes discontinued contact lens wear and how factors like vision and comfort influenced dropout.

The Paragon RG-4™ contact lenses are manufactured from Paragon HDS® 100. A slight reduction of the curvature of the cornea can reduce the excessive focusing power of the myopic eye. If the amount of corneal reshaping is precisely controlled as is the objective of Paragon RG-4™ lens design, it is possible to bring the eye into correct focus and completely compensate for myopia. After the contact lens is removed, the cornea retains its altered shape for all or most of one’s waking hours.

  • A Comparison and Evaluation of Aspheric Lens Designs Terry Draeger Kyle Fairless Tom Norfleet
    A COMPARISON AND EVALUATION OF ASPHERIC LENS DESIGNS 1994 TERRY DRAEGER KYLE FAIRLESS TOM NORFLEET ABSTRACT: Six aspheric, single vision lens designs, were subjectively and objectively compared by four non-presbyopic, hyperopic patients. The lenses chosen were Sola Optical's ASL Polycarbonate and Spectralite, Rodenstock's Cosmolit, American Optical's Aspherlite, Silor Optical's Hyperal, and Gentex Optic's Profile. The subjects were previously wearing spherical design single vision spectacles or contact lenses to correct their ametropia. Two of the four subjects preferred the Spectralite Aspherics overall, while the remaining two subjects preferred their habitual contact lenses. INTRODUCTION: Hyperopic patients have long been subject to heavy, thick­ centered, and magnified appearing prescription eyeglasses. Lens manufacturers are continually striving to design new materials free from distortions and other aberrations which become detrimental to image quality and a patients ability to function on both a visual and cosmetic basis. Studies have been conducted which have attempted to describe the aberrations produced by spherical as well as aspherical lenses (1) . Similarly, studies describing measuring and/or comparing distortions produced by progressive addition lenses have been described (2,3,4). Single vision, aspheric lenses are an example of how lens designers have tried to meet the visual and cosmetic needs of the non-presbyopic, hyperopic patient, by utilizing the Cartesian Oval Theory with different lens materials (5). This study was conducted to assess the consequences of fitting non-presbyopic, hyperopic, spherical design spectacle or contact lens wearers with six different aspheric lens designs in order to determine which design(s) seems best based upon subjective and objective subject responses.

Two different back surface lens designs were applied right eye) pentacurve and left eye) aspheric. The aspheric design was chosen to more closely mimic the cornea’s natural shape. Anterior and posterior apical radii and p-values; corneal thickness and anterior chamber depth were measured using the Orbscan IIz; together with ocular biometry by IOL Master and a standard clinical refraction. All measurements were repeated at one night, one week, one, three, six and twelve months. Refractive changes were analysed against biometric changes. Results; Twenty seven participants completed one month of lens wear. Twelve subjects completed twelve months of lens wear. Subjects with myopia ≤ -4.00DS were successfully treated with orthokeratology. Both anterior and posterior apical radii and p values were altered by orthokeratology.
