My glasses are single vision. I do have some mild astigma, but that's
it.
My PD numbers are:
Right: 30.5
Left: 27.0
Also, my prescription is:
Sphere Cylinder Axis
OD: -2.00 -1.25 00
OS: -2.25 -.075 90
There is note as well. It says "poly.ar" if that means anything. I
have no idea how to read a prescription, so does this help answer any
questions? Does anyone else have some insight?
Thanks for your comments!
