If a patient has chubby cheeks and needs a progressive lens, which would be the best option for a frame?
  1. A plastic frame that is small
  2. A metal frame with nose pads
  3. A metal frame with a form fit bridge
  4. None of the above
Explanation
Answer: B - If a patient has chubby cheeks and needs a progressive lens, a metal frame with nose pads is the best option for a frame.

This type of frame can easily be adjusted to be away from the face so the frame will not touch the face. When you place a progressive lens in a frame that sits on a patients face, it will be too close to use the add area and every time the patient smiles the frame will go up and down.
