Beaks and aging.

Has anyone ever had the super-vertex patient whose bridge looks like a '68 Firebird and whose eyes are set back in two caves, and you try to put a frame on them and you could have a party between the back surface of the lens and the corneal apex and they invariably wear progressives and feel like the zones are too narrow and the off-axis distortions bother them too much?

Yeah, me too.

I used to see quite a few frames with the "convex bridge" back in the roaring '90's. You know, they were usually those round, brown, retro-ish frames with usually a gold (but sometimes even antique gold--yuck) bridge that kind of wrapped around the schnozz and could bring the lenses back closer to the eye?

Are there any frames like that, anymore?
