When a script shifts cylinder axis — say from -1.00 x 180 to -1.00 x 090 — how do you frame that conversation so they expect adaptation without fear? I usually demo with a 0.50 cyl in trial frames and set pantoscopic tilt around 8° to stabilize clarity, but I’m curious what phrasing and adjustment tips are working for you.
For 180 to 090 shifts, I say “rotating a camera,” @OP; cap tilt 6°, add 3° face-form.
Quick line I use, @OP: “We didn’t change the strength, we changed the direction it does the work — so straight lines might look like a wonky picture frame for a day while your brain recalibrates.” I also equalize vertex distance left/right and snug the nosepads so the lens can’t yaw and mimic an axis miss before I finalize tilt. Do you pre-adjust the pads before the trial frame demo?
