Precision Vision Intros Berkeley Rudimentary Vision Test
Product: Berkeley Rudimentary Vision Test (Cat. No. 4500)
Top Line: For visual acuity levels beyond the limit of the letter charts, the common practice is for clinicians to categorize vision according to whether the patient can count fingers (CF) or detect hand motion (HM), but there is no recognized or standard procedures for doing this. The Berkeley Rudimentary Vision Test (BRVT) was developed to enable efficient and easy measurement of visual acuity beyond the limits of the letter chart. It becomes necessary to make the test task simpler than the letter chart task and, in order to achieve very large angular sizes, very close viewing distances may be required.
Close Up: In the interests of simplicity and flexibility of use, the BRVT has three card-pairs. Each card-pair consists of two 25 cm square hinged cards so each card-pair has four target surfaces.
Vital Stats: The BRVT comes complete with recording forms and full instructions.
The price is $175.00

Santinelli International Introduces Value-Edge and Grip-Tight Finishing Products
Products: Value-Edge Blocking Pads and Grip-Tight Intermediate Film
Top Line: Santinelli International recently extended its consumables product line to now include all-new Value-Edge Blocking Pads and Grip-Tight Intermediate Film, two budget-friendly solutions designed to improve lens finishing quality.
Close Up: The Santinelli Value-Edge Blocking Pads are made of a specially formulated foam and adhesive combination, designed to improve the edging performance of today’s coated and uncoated lenses. The foam material resists high rotational forces and prevents the pad from "wrinkling." The adhesive is formulated to bond to all hard coated, standard AR coated and many hydrophobic AR coated lenses, making it an excellent "all-around" pad. These blocking pads are available in several different sizes and shapes.
The Grip-Tight Intermediate Film is a product which was developed as an added security measure against slippage, giving the lens clamp a more secure “grip.” The intermediate film comes in both standard and high curve versions. The Grip-Tight High Curve film is thinner and more flexible, and adheres to high curve lenses with better "wet-out" results and without wrinkles. Grip-Tight will work well with any block size and shape.
Franco Aluigi, product manager for Santinelli International, said, "The Value-Edge Blocking Pads and The Grip-Tight Intermediate Film will be great cost-efficient additions to any lab, maintaining the quality of lens finishing results."
