Before you order from us, you need to have a copy of your prescription from your optician. You can use one, if you:
| 1. |
have one from an eye test taken within a year as eyesight may change overtime, or |
| 2. |
are 70 or over. |
If you need a new prescription or are getting one for the first time, now go to your local optician and get your eyes tested. Following the eye test, your optician is obliged to give you a written copy of your prescription. There's a chance they'll get grumpy at this request because they know it means you can now go off and buy your glasses anywhere. And it does happen that they refuse to your request for your personal prescription. So, to help you stand your ground, here are some suggestions you may find them useful in respond to an unobliging optician:
| 1. |
It's my right to have my written prescription immediately following my eye test as this is my personal
information. |
| 2. |
My work needs it as a supporting material to claim my eye test payment - receipt isn't enough for them. |
| 3. |
My doctor wants a copy. |
| 4. |
I want to frame it. |
We strongly recommend that you ask your optician to include your pupillary distance measurement (PD) in your prescription. It's not part of the eye test itself but it's a piece of important information in achieving a perfect fit of your pair. They'll either oblige, say no, or, in some cases, agree to take the measurement for a small fee. You might be stressed to buy your glasses from that store. But you can definitely make your own decision in where to purchase the good. You have every right to walk out of the door with your prescription in hand, and get a pair of glasses from us. |
