Preface
5This book is a basic reference book for all the Dispensing Opticians. This has been designed and developed in such a manner so as to give very basic and minimum required technical information about optics and dispensing of spectacles in a very simple language. Practical requirements of the subject have been given primary importance. I feel all the personnels from counter salesman, store incharge and works people to the top level segments must have a copy of this book with them to know the basics of the subject.
I shall be failing in my duty if I do not acknowledge the support which I got from the following personalities for providing me immediate informations as and when I required:
Mr Prasanta Gupta | From Essilor SRF Optics Ltd. |
Ms Padmaja P Pathan | From Essilor SRF Optics Ltd. |
Mr Sujay Debnath | From Bausch & Lomb India Pvt. Ltd. |
Dr S Mehmood | Chief Editor “The Optometry India” (Published By : Optometric Association of India, Kolkata) |
My heartiest thanks to them.
I do not claim that this is a complete textbook, rather it contains almost all the aspects of dispensing spectacles which we come across during our daily routine work in an optical store. I shall be highly satisfied if this book serves the purpose of those for whom this has been written.
Ajay Kumar Bhootra
Acknowledgement
6It gives me immense pleasure and I am proud to say that I could think of writing this book only on the belief that my uncle Sri Krishna Kumar Binani who is an eminent personality in the field of Optical Industry in India is always with me to extend any kind of help if I get stuck anywhere in between. It is because of his suggestions and inspirations I selected optometry as my postgraduate subject. Today whatever I have achieved in my life, it is all because of his constant support and guidance. I extend my sincere and humble salutation to him before the commencement of this book.
