Can You Convert a Contact Lens Prescription to Any Eyeglass Prescription?
March 28th, 2010 | See the Top Answers to this Question Below
I know yoyou cant do the reverse, however, my most recent eye exam was for contacts and they only wrote the contact prescription on the slip I have, so I was wondering if I can get my eyeglass prescription from it so I can order glasses online. Does anyone know if yoyou can do this?

Not sure about the online part, but the prescription should be for the same strength. The only difference is when they fit you for contacts they also have to fit your eye for them.
I would consult your doctor, but I am sure that your prescription for the contacts is equal to that of your glasses since it is the same strength.
I don’t think they are the same. But contact your Dr.’s office. They will give you the prescription that you need.
There is no way to do what you are asking. If you have a prescription for contacts, though, you have to have one for glasses on record at the office. You need to call them and get a copy of it.
Go back to your doctor and ask them to write up a prescription for glasses.
