Ever since the digital revolution took hold of the world in the mid-2000's with the rise of smartphones, tablets, and the dominance of laptops in the personal computing realm more people of all ages are feeling the effects of digital eye strain and harmful blue light.

The Vision Council has released the 2017 Blue Light/Digital Eye Strain Report, which shows some very telling numbers about this continuously growing share of the market.

Recently, our very own Director of Sales and Marketing, James Stephany, took time out of his busy schedule to give a lecture at Wiregrass Georgia Technical College.

This was a great opportunity for James to share his belief in the importance of opticians and their labs being on the same page. This cooperation is paramount in ensuring every patient can get the best possible pair of glasses to fit their needs and lifestyle.

Shamir set the bar very high with the success of the Shamir Autograph 2 and Shamir Autograph 3. This cemented their place in the optical industry as a leader with cutting-edge lens designs.

In my previous blog posts I showed you how easy it is to order your stock lenses through our myIcareLabs customer portal. But what about checking out to receive your stock order?

Hello everybody,

My name is Troy Payne, part of the third generation of the Payne family here at IcareLabs. Since Graduating from the University of Central Florida (GO KNIGHTS!!!) with a degree in Entrepreneurship and Business Management, I have been working on the retail side of the optical industry full time.

As a wholesale optical lab, we do not wake up in the morning hoping we can create issues for you and your patients. It is actually the exact opposite. We love the fact that by partnering with you and your practice, we're able to provide your patients with the best vision possible.

One of our most praised functions in the myIcareLabs customer portal is the ability to easily order your stock lenses.

IcareLabs is committed to making sure your practice has the lenses you need, when you need them!

UPDATE: The Crizal Alize AR formulation has been retired and replaced with the new and improved Crizal Easy Pro.

Crizal anti-reflective coatings can provide your patients with numerous reasons to return to your practice over and over again.

Ordering stock frames has never been easier thanks to IcareLab's easy to navigate myicarelabs.com customer portal.

We can offer your practice a wide variety of options that enable you to decrease the amount of time your patients are waiting for their new glasses.

As we have mentioned before, IcareLabs has been at this for 50 years now and has seen it all. We pride ourselves on finding solutions to problems and then implementing them.

One problem all labs and lab customers have experienced too often is input errors on phone and fax orders. As hard as we tried we could not come up with a phone or fax system that met our stringent accuracy standards.

So we created our state-of-the-art myIcareLabs online ordering portal:
