Thank you for looking and trying your best. I'm still confused though.
Last they told me was my left eye was -4.5, and my right eye was -4.25, both with a 15⁰ astigmatism.
But what's up with that 134? Do you really think that's meant to read 134?
I dunno, serious legit questions, regarding the handwriting, not asking any medical opinion, just handwriting..
134 indicates that this is a prescription for glasses and not lenses. Lenses are typically only available in increments of 10.
If that's the case, you should get a new prescription specifically for lenses, because the spherical correction (-4.5) will also be different between glasses and lenses, because of the distance to the eye.
What's the difference between glasses and lenses?
I need to understand this before Labor Day, I have to renew my driver's license, and that's a restriction on my license.
Class R - Regular Operator's License
Restrictions 1 - Corrective Lenses
I'm not aware of your laws, but isn't it just self-certification? Like you tell them "I use glasses to have normal vision" and they reply "okay cool" and write corrective lenses on your license?
Um, the Department of Motor Vehicles does a crude eye exam too ya know..
They gotta make sure drivers can read the road signs, which I cannot without corrective glasses or contacts.
An your current glasses are so insanely scratched that you can't pass said test?
Some people look me in the face and express concern that I might not see well through the scratches. And they're not wrong.
What is wrong though, is people insisting that I get a new eye exam, as if they're my opthalmologist or something...
My current prescription is fine, although technically outdated. All I need is new lenses that aren't scratched to hell and back.
And all I asked was how to actually read the chicken scratch on the prescription..
