Topic: "Dispensing for Sports"

Normally, when dispensing a script, it is recommended that the lens choice is made first and the frame choice follow on. Because, during many sporting activities, protection from glare, UV and impact are important, wrap type frames are indicated. As frames become larger this causes increasing problems with lens choice. 

This webinar will cover:

· The issues with lens thickness and cut out with wrap frames and script.

· The reasons for and calculations used for the compensated powers necessary to produce sharp vision for sports in high wrap frames.

· Recommendations for glare and UV reduction including materials and treatments that will improve contrast whilst protecting the eye.
