Can a -1.50 OU RX perscription be installed into this frame. Also what base curve will be needed. Or do you make in house with poly carbonate transition lenses.

A -1.50 Rx is not too strong and should fit ok in this frame. An 8 base curve would fit best in the frame and a good optical shop should be able to make the Rx work. The Rx would optically be best on a 6 base curve which a good shop could probably make work in this frame as well.
