The dye vats....kept at about 205 degrees F. You can tint plastic lenses just about any color you can imagine. Bausch & lomb g15 grey green takes 20 minutes. Next pair are going to be that wicked purple seen in the lower right corner!
Dr. Corey putting the finishing touches on my Ray Bans.
This is the machine that grinds the lenses to fit your frames. It's controlled by the computer that scans the shape of the frame and makes it the exact same shape. Very cool!
Okay kids...today's lesson is on how badly you get ripped off when you buy glasses. My friend Corey owns an optics lab and he made me 2 pair of glasses today. One normal pair and some new Ray Bans. Total cost to me including lab costs....$60.00. That's 2 pair people
!!! They are just plain lenses, no progressives or whatever....but that's inexpensive!!
