In this case, to specified the right eye as the balance lens, the file might send:
_LSTYLE=ST28;ST28
_BALANCE=R
This would identify that the right eye is to be a balance lens. To allow Rx-Universe to automatically substitute the balance lens style, a field is available on the lens style where the lab can specify the lens style to switch to for a balance lens job - since a manually entered order allows the user to specify that with the lens style, this is only needed and used for jobs coming in via file or endpoint. Again, using the example illustrated here, the ST28 lens style would be set up with ST28BL as the balance lens style:
...
When a raw file is processed with the _BALANCE option set to L or R, or the endpoint option is set for one of the eyes, the system will check the “Balance lens style” for the style specified and set the lens style for the balance eye to the “Balance lens style” value. For example, the following submission to the order endpoint:
customerNum=1
custJobID=TEST BALANCE 9
poNumber=BALANCE9
releaseNumber=1234
jobType=F
shipToNum=1
shipToName=Gene Simmons
shipToAddress1=1 Beth Ave

Just as with the manually created order, the right eye is a balance lens, but ST28 blanks are selected for the job, and the job is priced as described above:
