yes your contact lens rx just includes the diameter of your eye
not usually only because since contacts are close on the eye the rx is less strong but glasses sit on the face and usually the rx is stronger b/c of the difference in location
Nope, totally different prescriptions. Sorry
No, but if you call your eye Dr. they should have your scrip for you and you don’t have to get the glasses through your eye Dr.
No you can’t. I wanted to do the same thing, but the doc told me it’s a different prescription. It has to do with the curve and thickness of your eyeball. Which they don’t have to consider when prescribing glasses
don’t think so…good luck
No. Usually contact lens power must be 0.25 less than eye glasses’ power. You had better check your eye doctor. The rule may be not apply on every eye.
