ABO Tools and Adjustments
1. Acetate Frames Sit Too Close/Far - ANS--If the purchaser feels their acetate frames take
a seat too close to their eyes:
2. Add pantoscopic tilt OR Adjust temple splay angles to be greater acute
3. -If the customer feels the acetate frames sit too a long way from their eyes:
4. Add retroscopic tilt OR regulate temple splay angles to be more obtuse
5. Axis Plier - ANS-
6. Cutter Pliers - ANS-
7. double padded pliers - ANS-
8. Eyewire Shaper - ANS-
9. Frame Heater - ANS-Used to warmth an acetate or mixed fabric frame to make it more
malleable for changes.
10. Frames Sit Too High or Too Low - ANS-If the client feels the frames sit down too high:
11. Add retroscopic tilt
12. If the client feels the frames take a seat too low:
13. Add pantoscopic tilt
14. Frames Sitting Crooked - ANS-Lower the temple on the aspect that sits lower OR
15. Raise the temple at the aspect that sits better.
16. Do the opposite of the difficulty. It would not remember which side you regulate, the
higher or decrease aspect, so long as you raise or decrease the perfect temple.
17. Frames Too Loose - ANS-Adjust the cease piece and make the bend extra hooked OR
alter the splay of the temples and make the angle much less splayed.
18. -If you spot the temple splay angle is ideal, regulate -the give up piece.
19. If you notice the cease piece bend is ideal, adjust the temple splay.
20. Half Padded Pliers - ANS-
21. Lens Clock - ANS-Used to degree the curvature of a lens, also known as its base curve.
It also can be used to degree the dioptric power of the lens where
22. Back base curve - front base curve = power of lens
23. Lenses Hit Lashes/Brows - ANS-If the consumer feels their lenses are hitting their lashes
or brows:
24. Add pantoscopic tilt OR Adjust nosepads similarly far from frame front (TITANIUM
FRAMES ONLY)
25. Lensometer - ANS-Measures the prescription of the lens. It is used for QCing and
neutralizing glasses.
26. Needle Nose Pliers - ANS-
27. Nose Pad Pliers - ANS-
28. One Side Closer - ANS-Bring the temple of the aspect sitting closer inward (much less
splay) OR deliver the temple of the aspect sitting similarly outward (extra splay)
