Photochromic
Lenses

The latest developments
in photochromic lenses have taken the products into a totally different
arena – the world of lifestyle dispensing. This course takes a look
at lifestyle dispensing with photochromic lenses. Wearers have always
liked photochromic lenses for their comfort and convenience. Now with
the improved performance of these lenses, doctors and dispensers are
being given additional opportunities to meet a growing array of lifestyle
needs. Understanding the available photochromic technologies and how
to explain them to patients is key to providing eyewear that answers
and enhances the lifestyle needs of your patients.

Therefore, we’ll
start this course by describing the two main photochromic technologies.
We’ll also help you identify potential candidates for photochromic lenses.
Contact lens wearers. People with light sensitivity. Teenagers. Emerging
presbyopes. Outdoor enthusiasts and weekend athletes. People who spend
the day going inside and outside. Patients who simply want a stylish,
fashionable look. We’ll explore them all. We’ll take a look at dispensing
these lenses too. Finally, to make the process of dispensing photochromics
successful and time efficient for everyone in your office, we’ll show
you how to use a lifestyle questionnaire that engages patients more
fully in the discussion of their eyewear needs.
