PPG Industries, parent company of lens manufacturer Intercast, has created an online training guide for eye care professionals to learn about Trivex material and how to dispense it.
The company said that the guide was intended to help eye care professionals enhance their business by focusing on quality products.
Beginning with the history and science behind the Trivex material, the course reviews its performance benefits, using interactive illustrations and charts to demonstrate key properties. It then focuses on dispensing and suggests how to tailor recommendations based on the way patient lifestyles impact their eyewear expectations. It also reviews how Trivex can be combined with advanced lens designs and enhancements to fit various lifestyle needs. The course concludes by explaining the business advantages associated with offering lenses made from Trivex, followed by a short, interactive quiz to reinforce learning.
'As the availability of Trivex material continues to grow, so does the demand for product information,' said Nathan Troxell, marketing manager of PPG Industries. 'This module is a user-friendly overview of the various aspects of Trivex material for industry professionals, and the online format allows us to provide free and easy access to anyone interested in learning more.'
