What details do I enter with ref to a Near, Intermediate or Distance prescription?
Your prescription may contain different measurements for near, intermediate, or distance categories. If so you should do the following : • If you are ordering bifocal lenses then enter measurements for all categories • If you are ordering single vision lenses for reading or close up work then chose the ‘near’ line • If you are ordering single vision lenses for seeing things far away then chose the ‘distance’ line • If you are ordering single vision lenses for seeing things in between near and distance (eg computer screens) then chose the ‘intermediate’ line If you are at all unsure about which line is the most appropriate then please ask your optician at the time of your eye test.
