wifi hotspot is a from the phone not the provider so nothing they can do about it basically works the same, both my kids attach to my phone when we are out with kindle’s or pads

if you want to see a pic of the finished job I’ll post one, its a petite lady with a frame we have advies and using a 1.74 aspheric lens, the result is one even I’m suprised by and I see alot of glasses……..

Samuri I would be interested to know your prescription, as i can then say whether datum ‘should’ be OK or whether you would be better off with a proper measurement.

Case in point I am currently making a pair of glasses

sph cyl axis
R -10.25 -1.75 20
L -10.75 -1.25 180

We are setting these at PD 59 and 14mm above the rim of the lens…….this will give significantly better results than ‘just using datum’

Its basic physics really a spectacle lens is designed to be 12mm from the eyeball, for best results the focal point of the lens should be directly over the focal point of your own eye, on low power low astigmatism prescriptions this isn’t critical so the industry gives a tolerance of 3-4mm, however as prescriptions become more severe the placement becomes more critical to align the focal points

nbt on simple prescriptions its fine and doesn’t matter however on complex this can cause distortion and eye strain, but then what would i know, I only work in the industry……..

Samuri most pd’s on a single vision prescription are only measured in the horizontal plane and then placed on datum (the mid point on the frame in the vertical) if you have a high prescription with a significant astigmatism then yours should be taken in the vertical also and the lens center positioned over your pupil, I’m sorry to say if your opticians aren’t doing this for you then you really aren’t getting the best srrvice you can……….

I understand what you are saying OP and basically agree on this kind of thing its also going to work out better face to face than across the web……

samuri if your dispenser is not doing any measurements I would be looking for a different opticians, 1 they are assuming the optician has got it right…….everyone makes mistakes so twice is better than once, 2 if you prescription is even slightly complex or multifocal then the measurements need to be taken in relation to the frame otherwise you are not getting the best possible optical benefit…..

basically Hodgson used a joke as an illustration to get a point across, in todays politically correct socity it probably wasn’t the best joke to use, however incarnations of the same joke have been doing the rounds for years. Because townsend and smalling have african origin the ‘monkey’ part of the joke has been jumped on.

………To me its just a press bollox to pile some pressure on hodgson as he qualified us and didn’t give them any hater amunition by losing

Dispensing information isn’t noted at the time of test, the PD ‘may'(MORE SO IN CHILDREN THAN ADULTS IF NO QUALIFIED DISPENSER IS ON THE PREMESIS) be taken, but it isn’t obligatory. The major dispensing info is sorted once the patient has chosen a frame they are happy with depending on prescription and lens type chosen the required measurements can be different……………………….or at least thats the way it has worked for my wife’s 25 and my 12 years in the industry…….

Opticians rather than doctor, go get it checked asap, it could be nothing but it could be serious!

When I was around 20 I got offered the chance to go and teach Judo in the middle east, I turned it down as my own fighting career looked promising, 5 years later blew my knee out and had to retire

Cant link but web pave is in there somewhere

Cant link on pad, but its available from the 17th

Aldi will be having one inthis week for 39.99, not sure of its power etc but failing that holfords do a JVC at 69 quid that also ticks them boxes

I currently have a 32meg connection on sky unlimited, the fastest according to the internet available in my area 16meg think I’ll be staying put for now

gotta love that hits 5 and six on google are from threads on here about how bad dave hinde racing is, scarey really

5 degree is quite normal (on basic prescriptions nearest 5 degree steps is standard, more complex it will be done in 2.5’s only in really complex will it be taken to single digits)

try your local high school?

then as above, to be fair to boots they are doing a ‘recheck’ which is all they can do at this point, ht outcome of the recheck will obviously decide what happens next.

One final question was there a large or small change in the prescription? if a large then you might be struggling to cope with this, some opticians would give you this full change some would give you an increment of it, neither is wrong as said some optics is subjective.

If you have any other queries before or after the recheck regarding the results etc feel free to PM me for an independant viewpoint who understands both sides of this

Then you need to go back to boots but…………

……..it still may not be the prescription, I am guessing from the way the above reads you didn’t buy your glasses at boots, if this is the case take the glasses to boots and let them ‘neutralise’ them, I have seen many occaisions where ‘bucket’ shops have sent a patient back to get the prescription checked only to find the glasses made either dont meet the prescription via wrong powered lenses or lenses being off axis or badly centered in the frame, boots will probably happily check them for you (we would) and redirect you to the glasses seller if there is an issue in that direction, if this isn’t the case then boots then need to recheck which they should also do. Out of interest is your prescription single vision or multi focal?

A sight test result can be a little bit subjective between different opticians, there can also be underlying medical reasons for the difference ie diabetese badly controlled can change your prescription on an almost daily basis.

Whilst at home one day, I noticed my new glasses weren’t as sharp as my old ones. In order to be sure, I went back to the opticians where I got the glasses from to check they were accurate to the prescription: They were.

Was this straight after collection, a few days later or have you constantly been switching between old and new pairs as like the first time you put glasses on your brain needs time to adjust to the new prescription, if it was when you first wore them or you have been swapping then you need to put the old glasses away in a drawer for a week and just wear the new pair, after this week compare the difference and see if you still think the new pair are deficient then here’s a cutting from our practice leaflet that gives you a national body to complain to if you feel you are being badly served find out which PCT or clinical comissioning board controls your area and complain to them (Boots are legally obliged to have a brochure on premesis that will give you these details)

govt has a calculator here

mini antique opera telescope, bought £10 sold on ebay for £175

Have you had them properly fitted at the opticians, yes or no I would go back and get them checked

I have a couple of dare2b jackets and cycling tops, my waterproof in particular has been fantastic, underarm vents hood has wired peak too

I have the blue faced version of this (cant find a decent pic for the blue)

I have the note 10.1 and think its fantastic, the micro sd expansion slot means you can store loads, its not a half bad camera and video to boot

tip for you if you are going howdens go now they will be about to start their ‘period 12’ sale, the one and only sale they have each year. (EX howdens kitchen designer)

Said this a few times on here, the stupid comment ‘a reasonable time scale’ makes the law open to interpretation by both the buyer and seller, ‘reasonable time scale’ differs from product to product, and noone has yet gone down the line of getting the term tested in law as they know it would be a very long very drawn out and very expensive piece of litigation.

This basically means that morally you should probably be able to expect a refund, but a retailer who is slightly less than scrupulous can ‘interpret’ the law to suit themself and insist on repai replace.

Another angle that might be of more merit to you is if a product is less than 6 months old its the sellers responsibility to prove the fault wasn’t there at the time of manufacture rather than yours that it was, this may be a stronger angle from which to persue a refund, oh and if the seller says he is waiting for the distributers decision ask him what this has to do with the price of cheese as your contract is with him and his negotiations with the distributor are nothing to do with you and not your problem

I like the dare2b range of stuff, its reasonable priced and just works…..

Couple from Stafford used to own B008 and 800B, when they divorced they argued over ownership, so the judge gave them 1 each.

The kicker individually they were worth approx £2k each as a pair of 8008’s they were worth 30-40k, and this was 15-20 years ago….

the easy answer is yes, stand alone graphics cared is more for gaming/photography and other picture resolution intensive stuff.
For what you want to do lower price laptops wwould also do what you need

Having said the above I manages to get a quad core i7 with 6gb of ram 1TB drive and 650 gfx card just b4 xmas from a amsung clearance place so maybe worth a chweck

robin thicke or john newman for me this year
