If you pulled out a magnifying glass and looked at the Zenni pair, you would find something similar. Mine has a +225 which is my ADD power for the reading portion of the lenses. I would guess your ADD power is +1.50. On the inside of my Zenni pair, it's not a +0 but a capital "D".
I believe the markings have something to do with aligning the segment height (fitting height), but I could be wrong. -=# Firewalker #=- On Mar 6, 10:30 am, abfabdude <[email protected]> wrote: > Since they were relatively inexpensive, I ordered a pair of Glasses > with Progressives from Both Zenni and G4U to compare for myself. > > Zenni's are fantastic, I dont think I've EVER gotten a pair so "spot > on" from a US brick and mortar.
