The capabilities of the in-office laboratory grow more sophisticated each year. Dispensers are taking advantage of new technologies in tinting, edging, tracing, surfacing and even casting to produce high-performance lenses for their increasingly discriminating patients. Whether you’re a solo practitioner with a small in-office lab or the manager of an on-site lab in a retail chain, the listed suppliers can help you find the right equipment to fit your needs. Eyecare professionals need a scorecard to keep track of the vast amount of ophthalmic lens products on the market today. This at-a-glance guide will help you find suppliers of every type of lens. Manufacturers and distributors are listed alphabetically, along with contact information and lens material and design availability. Contact the manufacturer to find out which wholesale laboratories or stock lens suppliers distribute their products.
