Optometrists or techs who are authorized to do the contact lens Rx's.
Why are there Rings around edges of 1.67 hi index lens?
Its called Chromatic aberration. You must have a large RX. Try asking for a lens that is Atoric. Anti-reflective coatings will help this issue.
How do you switch a prescription for glasses to contacts?
You don't. The optometrist has to do a contact lens evaluation and fitting. Contact lenses Rx's are done separately,not to be mistaken for routine exam. Most insurances don't cover contact lens fittings. Contact lenses do not mean you can wear an old pair of glasses as backup. You will need a good pair of glasses with current Rx properly fitted. Contact lens Rx is good for one year to the day and glasses Rx is good for two years to the day.
What does single vision lens mean?
this means you just have a prescription in your glasses or contacts that are correcting only for just distance correction or near correction. for example, rx could be -1.00 right eye and -1.25 left eye if you take that rx and make it -1.00 ADD +2.00 right eye, -1.25 ADD +2.00 left eye that is a multi focal rx. means correction for distance vision with a bifocal added to glasses for near vision.

How can you convert an optometrist prescription of Right -6.00 plus 0.75 x95 Left -7.25 plus 0.75 x95 to a contact lens prescription?
Contact prescriptions are a whole different thing. You have to have a contact lens fitting or evaluation which includes K Readings. Contacts will be a different RX. The RX you have does not look as if an OD (Optometrist) wrote it, however. Usually ODs (optometrists) write in minus cylinder and D.O.s (ophthalmologists) use plus cylinder for Rx's. The Rx for glasses has some cylinder and most likely with a +.75 cylinder will require fitting of a toric lens. However, in some cases patients see better with a sherical contact lenses. There are different base curves and diameters which factor into a contact lens Rx's. Most D.O.s don't really like fitting torics because the patient goes through several sets of trial lenses and has more "in chair" time. You will be charged additional fees for a final contact lens prescription. After all the time and fitting, you still may not end up with a contact lens prescription. If you decide that you want contacts, go to an OD because they have more practice with contacts and they usually have a tech that does most of the fitting and training. D.O.s do surgery, and feel that fitting contacts is a waste of their time as well as waste of tech time.. Before going in for contact lenses, practice touching your eye without blinking. This will save you a lot of frustrating time in front of a bored tech! Remember, you are the patient. Request a review of options. One final thing, you should leave with (by law whether you have paid or not) a prescription in hand. Wait to pay for fitting until the doc has handed you the contact lens RX or you may have a hard time getting a refund for money spent for your wasted time. If you do get your final contact lens Rx, do not feel obligated to buy the contacts from the optometrist. Good Luck! Jace

What is the definition of prescription contact lenses?
You must have the patients name, date of the Rx, type of contacts (Brand and / or model) the base curve, the power of each lens. Diameter is not required on soft lens prescriptions but is good to have. Hard lenses would include other factors that I won't get into here. All Rx's expire 1 year after the exam and can not be legally filled. Sometimes they can expire sooner, but that is the doctors call. Dr. Dan
