Hi There,
For a while I had Pentax made correction glasses on mee nose :)
Why not.
In fact, the joint venture between Panasonic and Leica does well for the
brand name.
But Leica buys out of Schott the bare material.....
I would see that brand more into the tools required for making thecorrection
glasses, the tools for printing (Japanese + german to repalce the Agfa
tools)
Any "scientific" use would suit Leica better.
