great book that covers basic fundamentals and walk you through each step of lens finishing. highly recommended if you want to learn more about the optical industry.
Had this book back in 2004. Loaned it and never got it back. Decided I wanted it back in my library. Excellent book for the essentials.
the best book ever! I love it! It has everything. I would recommend this book to all optometrists and opticians
The first two chapters are underlined and contain ink annotations, but the remainder of the book is fine
good
