Description:

For students, people training on the job, and experienced practitioners involved in the dispensing eye glasses. The first half explains practical aspects, such as frame selection, operations dealing with multifocal measurement, ordering, verification, dispensing the finished prescription, and any ensuring readjustments or repairs. The second half delves into the optics involved, and may be studied first, last, or concurrently. Also includes a troubleshooting guide, a text- marking system to assist rapid learning by prioritizing information, and a glossary without pronunciation. No date is noted for the first edition.
