What's the best way to wear a Romeo 1 so lenses don't get spider cracks?

What's the best way to put on your Romeo 1

  • Place R1 nose bridge on your nose and then rotate the arms down onto ears pivoting at nose.

  • Place R1 on head with earstems touching ears. Then pivot R1s over forehead onto nose.

  • I've got a pin head. I just ram them on like normal O-matter.

  • Keep R1 horizontal and slide it down like wearing a hat.

i've been wearing my R1 for several years and never had a single set of my custom cut lenses crack for myself or my customers.

i personally have a big noggin' and I just put them on straight from the front by spreading the arms out wide.

FYI cracking lenses isn't a phenomena to just R1. It's a widely known issue for all ophthalmic lens labs in the industry and there's a proper way to cut/grind lenses that significantly minimize stress cracks by distributing tension more evenly across the lens than other methods of cutting.
