This is where the external lab codes for spectacle lens coded tints are entered. Any spectacle lens coded tints with an external lab code entered here will be sent to the special instruction (also called the service description) area. If no external lab code is entered the description field also gets sent to the special instruction area. You can also enter "IN HOUSE" in the external lab code field and no coded tint will be sent to the lab (to be done in-house instead). Colored glass tints are handled differently and will be discussed further in section two under Specific Lens Setup: Tints.
The following is a list of some of the basic external lab codes currently supported by the DVI lab order entry computer (There may be more codes available). You should discuss the various options available with your own DVI laboratory.
(Note: The SAPIENT description can be anything, but the DVI code must match)
