The system also displays only those options that you ask are requested to seeview. If you know the correct code and seg for the style you want, you don’t need to display are known, showing the style list . Or if you don’t need to enter any calculation options, you don't need to display the calculation listis not required. The calculation list does not need to open if the options are not required.
- Rx Form - – Information is organized in the system is organized to reflect the order of information listed on the typical Rx form.
- Windows - All information is entered and displayed in windows, rather than in screens. Some windows are displayed within view for every job; others are displayed only under specific circumstances. As you complete a window is complete, the next appropriate window will be displayed slightly below the last previous window. You can easily effortlessly move to the previous prior window by pressing the Escape (ESC) key.
- Fields - Some fields are displayed for every lens selected; others are displayed appear only if a specific lens is selected.

Definitions
- Order Entry - The Order Entry function allows you to enter all measurements, curves, and blocking needed to create the prescribed lens. If you have pricing is active, then basic invoicing information is also recorded here.
- Optifacts Blocking - Your – Design of the Optifacts software is designed to allow allows on geometric lens center blocking or MRP (Manufacturer Reference Point) blocking for lens surfacing. The system will compute the prism required to place optical centers, the prism direction, and the segment positioning required at Order Entry. When on center blocking is used, a single vision must be blocked as close as possible to the geometric center of the lens. However, blocking Multifocals , however, should not be blocked on the geometric center as determined by available blank center locating methods. Rather, but rather referencing up and over from the segment equal to the layout seg down and seg in amounts. MRP blocking is also available and is automatic for aspheric and progressive lenses. On the work ticket, the system will list the blocking method at the top and the measurements under Surfacing Markup.
- Right-Eye Assumption - The system always assumes you are entering the right eye calculations entered first. In any window with calculations, for both eyes, the system will first ask for the right eye calculations, then left eye calculations. And, if you’re working with only one lens, you can signal the system to prompt for that lens only, left or right.
- Right, and Left lenses are labeled as R and L in the Rx window. In all other windows, two lines indicate two lenses, the first line as right and the bottom line as left. The right lens is always on the first line, as labeled shown in the Rx windowscreen.
Procedure

Entering Values in Order Entry
Values for various materials are input in the fields illustrated below. Inputting these values is similar to inputting dollar amounts. You must type the decimal point in the numeric entry. For example, if you want to input an entry of 3.5 for the Sphere, you would type 3, the period, and the 5. When you press Enter, the number appropriately aligns within the field. Some fields default to an entry when you Enter through it.
