Photos: Emblems on Glasses

I got two pairs of new glasses Saturday, March 4th, one with graduated or transitional lenses, the other with a single prescription throughout the lens.  The doctor called them 'crafting glasses'; the man who made sure they were the proper fit called them 'piano glasses'.  Either way, I'm very happy with them.  I can now actually see the books on the song rack of my piano!

Last week one day I was cleaning them -- and was all dismayed because I thought I'd scratched them.  I put on my other glasses, the better to see them -- but it was late, and my eyes were tired and didn't want to focus.  Odd, though; there were identical 'scratches' on each lens, two on each.

The next morning, I took a better look.

How 'bout that?  There are tiny engraved emblems on the lenses!  I'd nearly removed the prescription in the lens, trying to rub those things out.

A couple of days later, I thought I'd scratched the other pair.  I donned the reading glasses -- and discovered there are emblems on these, too.  First time I've seen that.  

So I got out my macro lens and took pictures of them:






I don't notice the emblems at all on the transitional lenses while wearing them.  Now and then when wearing the crafting glasses, however, an emblem will catch the light.
