Hello,
Regarding prescriptions, do I have the right to ask for my PD when I have my eyes examined by a licensed optometrist? I would like to have to option to shop around when I get new glasses, and since I am paying for a service (the eye exam), I would like to have a complete prescription written out. What resources do I have if I am denied the PD value for my prescription?
Thank you.
ANSWER
For regular glasses, a PD is not part of the prescription. The person who makes your glasses needs to check that themselves and they have special instruments to do that.
