Question:
Just curious. I have read that some states require eye doctors to provide
patients their contact lens prescriptions upon request, and others don't.
I'm curious whether there is such a requirement in California or not.
Does anyone have any experience with Prescription Contact Lens
Answer:
A further question, not even addressed by the FAQ: My optometrist gave me
a prescription for spectacles a year and a half ago. I took that
prescription to the optician who is currently fitting my contact lenses.
The optometrist's prescription will bear very little relationship to the
contact lens prescription I end up with. So can/should the optician give
me a copy of the prescription? I know there has to be more info involved
than what's printed on the vials.
