PattayaCityUncovered.com

any people come to Pattaya a few times per year, and sometimes it’s nice to get away from the hustle and bustle for a couple of days to curl up in a ball and reevaluate life and reality as we know it. The island of Koh Larn is located a short ferry ride away from the city and provides the perfect foil to the action-packed Pattaya scene. If you are a family, a couple or a single person looking to get away from Pattaya for a couple of days, Koh Larn makes for the perfect remedy for rest and rejuvenation. Located in the crystal waters of the Gulf of Thailand, the island is located 7km off the coast of Pattaya and is about 4km long and 2km wide.

What to do in Koh Larn?

Being quite a small island in size, you mainly come to Koh Larn to relax, although there are a few things to do when you get here. Koh Larn is mainly about the water sports baby! Get yourself on a banana boat, or partake in a bit of para-sailing or jet-skiing. Many people like to enjoy a cooling swim in the crystal clear waters or to do a bit of fishing off the pier. There is even a shooting range in Koh Larn if you are looking for something that doesn’t involve water in any way. Hiring a motorbike or bicycle is also a great way to explore the island in your own time and pace. The inclines on the island can be a bit steep, so renting a bicycle isn’t for the faint-hearted.

With many stunning beaches, lots of watersport activates, great beachfront restaurants and resorts such as the excellent Suntosa Resort (which you can read about in the magazine) and a laidback atmosphere that seeps into your consciousness, Koh Larn is the ultimate getaway destination in the region.

It’s all about the beaches

It’s all about the beaches, and that’s not a typo! It’s like being in the south of Thailand without the 12-hour bus journey. There are 6 main beaches on the island, with some smaller ones too. You will find the majority of the resorts located on either Samae or Tawaen beaches, which are two of the biggest. Other popular beaches include Tien Beach, Nual Beach, Tonglang Beach and Tayaiy Beach. Beach chairs on the island cost mainly 100 THB, so get yourself a spot, sit back and absorb the tropical beauty.

How to get there?

There are 2 ways to visit Koh Larn from Pattaya: by ferry or by speedboat. You can get a ferry from Bali Hai Pier at the back-end of Walking Street that only costs 30 THB per person. Another options, which is a bit grander, is hiring a speedboat that can cost from 1,500 THB to 2,500 THB depending on the size of the boat. Although this is the more stylish option, it’s all about getting to Koh Larn, unless you want to arrive in style of course!

If he’s low on “T,” he’s likely to become less interested in having sex.

* Erectile Dysfunction Erections are triggered by the body’s release of a tiny molecule called nitric oxide. But testosterone is what’s needed to trigger this release.

* Reduced Muscle Mass Men with low testosterone often feel that they’re not as strong as they once were. Some men actually notice shrinkage in their arm and leg muscles, and in their chest.

* Fatigue It’s perfectly normal for men to feel tired at the end of a busy day. Men with “Low T” feel completely depleted.

* More Body Fat Low testosterone often results not only in reduced muscle mass, but also in increased body fat. Some guys add weight around the middle. Others develop gynecomastia, a.k.a. “man boobs.”

* Decreased Energy In addition to feeling severe fatigue, men with low testosterone often lose their drive and initiative. * Mood Problems Even if they’re not experiencing clinical depression, men with low testosterone often feel down or blue. They feel less optimistic than they used to feel. * Irritability Low testosterone can cause men to be grouchy and irritable.

VISION CORRECTION& PROGRESSIVE LENSES 5/5

lthough complex lenses have tremendously improved, customers still experience difficulties because the visual comfort is not only depending on the lensesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; design and production quality but is related to all the different aspects of vision correction.

The solution and result must not be mixed up because too often the products are said to be the solution. For example, progressive lenses which offer far, intermediate and near sharp vision are sold as the perfect answer for all-round vision. This leads to associating the product with the solution without considering the result, forcing customers to get used to it.

Progressive lenses as multi-correction lenses have a strong influence on different organs of the visual system such as the eyes for sharpness, brain for images fusion and recognition, ears for balance and spatial orientation, and much more, revealing unsuspected visual weaknesses which if not properly corrected, induce discomfort.

Because every person is different, generic technical procedures cannot be used, simply because the path to the expected result is different from person to person.

The visual comfort depends on the customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; physical capability to overcome difficulties that diminish with age. 48

The customers are very informed about their needs and the latest technology. By no means should professionals decide for customers because it always ends up in painful situations which are too often put aside while trying to convince customers that their difficulties are their own problem, due to

their physiological incapability to adapt to complex progressive surfaces!!!! Visual comfort depends on the resulting prosthesis, which must be made by “the users for the users”.

Progressive lenses are multi power lenses which correct multiple aspects of the vision and which require us to reconsider the entire approach to vision.

“The users” means that customers have all the required information (technical, financial, psychological) for creating the right solution which will give the expected results.

Vision is a whole concept which includes the eyes (accommodation), the brain (image perception, binocular vision, and recognition), the visual system (equilibrium, spatial orientation) and the body (static and dynamic situations). This could all mean that the visual discomforts may have different origins.

Today in the present market, dominated by products, it seems that customer satisfaction is only dependent on product quality, excluding all the other components such as eye tests, lenses position measurements and frames.

For example the equilibrium and the spatial orientation can be affected by the frame, the lenses’ design, the eye’s error correcting powers and the person’s capability to overcome changes, which is the duty of the professionals to correct.

Our know-how does not only concern the different technical and psychological tasks to perform, but the process which leads to the expected result, meaning the visual comfort leading to the person’s wellbeing.

From this experience, the distinction between the fovea vision (the sharp central vision) and the peripheral vision (the side vision for orientation) was taken into consideration by the manufacturers.

The visual comfort can be achieved with progressive lenses following our unique step by step process developed for optimal Individualization of our service.

These two vision elements are independent of each other but their inter actions are extremely important for the visual comfort and consequently for the customers’ wellbeing. The new soft progressive lens based on the aspherical structure presented a huge improvement, but because of certain conditions, its advantages were not obvious. Today, customers are left alone to deal with “the progressive lenses imperfections” from whatever their origin, which is a situation that we try to turn around at Euro Optic.
