    How you do for maintain curved proportionally about the frame ? It look very nice. In my school we work with very simple machines.. neksia not do very much position.. and i think my instructor is old and doesn’t know to use all the possibilities. How you learn your machine possibilities ?

    Hey! Great video. Just wanted to ask, how thick would a -4.5 lense be? My left eye is at -4.5 or so, and my right eye is at -2.0 or something :)

    what's the weight difference between glass lens and a high index plastic lens of the same prescription? I'm -10 and would love to try glass but hear it's heavy and uncomfortable for long wear

    • @thespectaclefactory
      @thespectaclefactory  Рік тому

      Glass is heavier. If you have -10 then it's best to have plastic lenses for work or around the house, and a glass pair for 'best'

    • @jaredmengsk6330
      @jaredmengsk6330 Рік тому

      If you can answer Matthew’s questions, Robert please…
      My guesses:
      Curve: so the frame doesn’t splay out too excessively
      Tilt: distributing the thickness of the bottom

    • @arronfitzsimmons2303
      @arronfitzsimmons2303 Рік тому

      The curve function is also useful for making the thickness appear more uniform when the frame curve isn't the same as the front curve of the lens.

    Question: why can’t we go above 1.74 ? Is technology mot there or is the demand for it the issue?

    • @thespectaclefactory
      @thespectaclefactory  Рік тому +8

      My understanding (and I'm not an expert on this particular subject) is that the refractive index of optical plastic is increased by adding sulphur, which adversely affects clarity. Therefore a lens with a higher index wouldn't meet international standards, or perhaps they just can't keep adding sulphur for some reason.
      But 1.76 exists, and you can go up to 1.9 in glass.

      @@thespectaclefactory YES, 1.74 I CURENTLY HAVE BUT MY MIND CANT UNDERSTAND WHY WE STOPED AT 1.74, MAYBE NEW TECHNOLOGY WILL COME UP SOON. DO YOU HAVE ANY ADVISE ON SUNGLASSES CLIPONS FOR HIGH PRESCRIPTION. WHERE CAN I CONTACT YOU? I CAN SEND YOU MY FILE AND MAYBE YOU CAN ADVISE ME.

    • @arronfitzsimmons2303
      @arronfitzsimmons2303 Рік тому

      The higher the index of plastic lenses (in the technologies current state), the worse the constringence, that is, the lenses ability to keep all the wavelengths of light together. Basically a colour fringing effect. The higher the prescription the more noticeable the effect, which can become detrimental to the wearer at high powers.
      A number of high prescription wearers don't achieve 20/20 (6/6 here in Australia), so it can be somewhat counter intuitive if it has an adverse affect on clarity.

    • @curlyhairdudeify
      @curlyhairdudeify Рік тому +3

      The refractive index comes from the jewelry industry; 1.67 and 1.74 would be fine lead glass crystal; Swarovski.
      1.90+ would be Sphene (Titanite).
      2.417 is diamond.
      2.65+ is moissanite.
      I highly doubt that scientist can ever replicate the refractive index of diamonds, and moissanites in plastic.
      I'm pretty sure that they can replicate Sphene (Titanite) in glass.
