i recently had my eyes checked and stipulated getting the PD written down as a requirment for making an appointment. I was told "no problem".
BUT, I was just given ONE number (65). Which after further reading seems as though I should have gotten 2 SETS of numbers. Any thoughts or opinions on how to work with getting only one number? I notice that "do it yourself" PD techniques seem to only come up with one number. Can I subtract a couple of millimeters for bifocals/computer/reading and figure that is good enough? Or is just using the 65 good enough for general use. Just how critical is it to get the PD EXACTLY right? Thanks for any thoughts or opinions...
