In most cases, your optician will prescribe your
spectacles. He or she has the professional education and the
technical equipment to determine any sight defect very precisely
and to recommend the right spectacles for you. However, opticians
cannot make medical diagnoses and will refer you to a specialist
in such cases.
Determining your prescription or testing your sight is a
procedure known as "refraction" and is a complex
process. The professional has the in-depth training, the high-tech
instruments and the skill to determine the exact prescription for
your eyes.
Ask for advice
It is not possible to find one pair of spectacles which is
equally good for every application or for every wearer. Ask for
advice! Even the best glasses can only provide their optimum
function if the lenses are really perfectly fitted in front of the
eyes. If the fit of the frame on the face is not adjusted - as is
the case with ready-mades - the eyes may be subjected to increased
strain and there may be incompatibility with the
lenses.
