EDGING<br />
As well as having our own tracers<br />
to offer, we can accept a remote<br />
edge fi le from a number of different<br />
tracers which you may already have<br />
in practice. This allows us to accept<br />
traces for the vast majority of frames<br />
on the market including full rim,<br />
supra and rimless.<br />
When you have a patient with a high<br />
combination of spherical and cylinder<br />
powers, it is best to send the job<br />
to our glazing team. However, we<br />
suggest calling the customer service<br />
team to discuss this.<br />
In addition, there are certain frame<br />
types that are not always suitable<br />
for tracing through remote edgers.<br />
These can include double rim<br />
frames, inline supra frames, shallow<br />
frames with a depth of less than<br />
22mm and frames with a high<br />
degree of wrap angle.<br />
For frames that are diffi cult to trace<br />
or for orders where you require<br />
powers outside of +/-7.00 sphere<br />
and over -3 cyls, we strongly suggest<br />
you send the frame and lens order<br />
to our on-site glazing team.<br />

HEAVY<br />
LIGHT<br />
In 2022 Millmead Optical Group embarked on an ambitious and thought-provoking project to shine a light<br />
on sustainability within the optical industry.<br />
In acknowledgement of the waste generated by demo lenses<br />
and the lens manufacturing process we wanted to create a<br />
sculpture using these waste materials to help start a<br />
discussion about how the industry could find ways to reduce<br />
the waste produced in the lens manufacturing process.<br />
The sculpture was conceived and designed by renowned<br />
designer Yair Neuman, who specialises in sustainable<br />
material innovation in optics. He was assisted in the creation<br />
of this sculpture project by Hannah Browne, a Fine Art<br />
student at Liverpool John Moores University.<br />
The sculpture first went on display at the Open Eye Gallery,<br />
on Liverpool’s famous Royal Albert Docks. ‘Heavy Light’ will<br />
officially receive its London launch at 100% Optical where it<br />
will be unveiled and introduced by Yair Neuman. James<br />
Conway, CEO of Millmead Optical Group, will also be<br />
discussing the purpose and important role of the sculpture<br />
going into <strong>2023</strong>.<br />
The central message of this project is of huge significance;<br />
If we can turn discarded waste products into something<br />
beautiful and begin those important discussions about<br />
reducing industrial waste, then there is hope for us all to<br />
become part of the solution.”<br />
James Conway said, “Sustainability is a journey, not a<br />
destination and it’s one that we embarked on four years ago<br />
at Millmead. However, this collaboration with Yair Neuman<br />
and the work we’ve developed to find more sustainable uses<br />
for our waste products, is by far the biggest step that we<br />
have taken along our own journey. We’re thrilled with the<br />
sculpture and look forward to unveiling it at 100% Optical,<br />
before it embarks on a nationwide tour across several<br />
galleries and industry events.”<br />
We hope that the Heavy-Light sculpture provides food for<br />
thought and inspiration, for anyone embarking on their<br />
sustainability journey throughout next year and beyond.<br />
Yair Neuman has commented, “I’m delighted to be unveiling<br />
the sculpture in London at 100% Optical. The process of<br />
working with the team at Millmead Optical Group and my<br />
assistant Hannah, has been an incredible learning experience<br />
for us all.<br />
