As a lab Technician I am proficient in all aspects of eyeglass production. I am proficient in lens layout, blocking lenses for generating of Rx into the backside of the lens, setting up the cylinder machine to polish lens, I am an expert in verifying the Rx making sure the Rx matches what was ordered, ensuring that there are no surface defects, or anything that would fail the lens I am very able in the layout of the Rx and lens for blocking to edge for frame insertion. I am well versed in adding any coatings, tint, or prep the lens for anti reflective coating. The final step is the QA.
