Curious about the “hidden” markings

[NewGuy416]

I got Oakley progressives, and they are having to remake them as the height wasn’t correct. I do see some expected markings on them for my progressives, the O and ^108 (^104 on the other lens) for my adjusted add power. These are on the outside part of the lenses.

However I also see another marking on each one on the inner part of the lenses, which also as the O and what looks like IA on one and the other looks like VI. The Lester’s could also be flipped as I am not sure what is considered front/back.

Not complaining about them, just curious to know what they mean. I did pay for the OTD Advanced Plus if that means anything.

Any idea what those mean?

This is my prescription

OD -4.00 -1.75 154

OS -4.25 -0.50 005

ADD 1.25 on both

Thank you.

Seems these might be Essilor Ideal Advanced IV….

Seems even if you pay for the Oakley True Digital, that doesn’t exist.

Guess Oakley doesn’t make their own lenses. This is a 2026 order, directly done at an Oakley store.

Kinda wish I just went somewhere else now. Why drive all the way to an Oakley store when I could have just went to Target or LensCrafters and got the same lenses. I would have also worked with people there more familiar with prescription glasses and measurements. Really thought I was going the higher end route this time.

This doc does still have the OTD options listed.

Curious if anyone knows what the markings on the lenses for an OTD lens would be.
