One caveat....

Factory orders are from Distributors and Dealers.  They do not properly
represent consumer sales.

They were producing about 10,000 lenses per year.  Even if you triple that
number, that  is an 14 month backlog......

And they keep raising the prices......

He also said that the total number of lens backorders at the factory is
about 35,000..... How many do they produce a day again ;-)
