Optical Prescription Dispensers

About the Optical Prescription Dispensers heading in Yellow™

For information regarding optical prescription dispensers look under this Yellow™ heading. Optical prescription dispensers prescribe and dispense glasses and contact lenses that suit the prescription of the person who is going to wear them. They assist patients and customers as they get their eyes examined and their prescription glasses ready when they visit the optical clinic or store. The patient may discuss with them what they need and ask for their advice when choosing a frame that best suits the prescription.

An optical clinic and shop needs friendly and experienced optical prescription dispensers to give professional advice and assistance to eye patients. One of the advices they can give to patients is what frame shape best suits their face. There are frame shapes for every type of face shape. One could have an oval face, round face, square face, or rectangular face. A person can wear any frame shape provided that his or her prescription is standard. However, there are lenses that require smaller, thinner frames. An optical prescription dispenser must be able to help the eye patient select the frame shape that one can wear for his or her prescription. They may also prescribe safety glasses and add tinting, UV and polarisation to the eye glasses. Prescription glasses may be delivered if the patient wants to. The glasses will arrive with a hard case and micro-fibre cleaning cloth.

Optical prescription dispensers also dispense different types of contact lenses if the eye patient prefers them. There are soft contact lenses, coloured contact lenses, multifocal contact lenses, and disposable contact lenses. Optical prescription dispensers also remind patients when their next visit should be scheduled.
