We also are trying to place our selves, where no other offices offer what we do here. We do a lot of eyezen lenses and we do all digital lenses.
If we do give out an RX we include this...
Legally, you have the right to your eyeglass prescription, and as a patient at Dunlap Vision (DV) you will always be provided with a copy upon request.
Listed below are the services/measurements essential to ordering a new pair of glasses to ensure clear and comfortable vision. These services/measurements are to be performed by the optician fitting your new glasses.
· Pupillary distance
· Segment height
· Vertical optical center
· Custom measurements for Position of Wear (“POW”)
· Eye size
· Bridge size
· Temple length
· Frame model and color
· Lens material and index
· Multifocal design and brand
· Optional lens features – such as tints, coatings, etc.
· Eyeglass dispensing adjustment
· Education and training on lens and frame features and care
· Ongoing adjustments
· Minor repairs
We provide the above services at no additional cost for patients who buy eyeglasses at DV, but we cannot provide them for glasses purchased elsewhere secondary to liability. While local opticians and optical shops generally do a good job of filling our prescriptions, we would like to caution you on the use of eyeglass vendors on the Internet. When purchasing spectacles via the internet these critical measurements and services are not met.
Here at DV we believe we offer the best value available when you consider service, quality, and cost. We understand if you decide to shop elsewhere for your glasses, but we hope this letter makes you aware of the risk. Please check with the vendor of your glasses to determine the return and refund policies in the event the product does not deliver.
Thank you for allowing us to participate in your eye health care. We hope you’ll continue to choose us as your primary eye care provider.
