Hi Amanda, did I see somewhere that Vision-America will come out with an 
App so that it will give information on a prescription from CVS?  I could use 
such an App but, I don’t want to have my Eye drops come in the mail.  Andy and 
Shubert
p.s. The reason I don’t want mail order is simply that my mail is terrible.  
Most things go to another address.

Some general information about bar-codes on medications and such....

95% of the time when there is a bar-code present on a prescription label, the 
bar-code is only for internal use. It will be the RX number, account number or 
something along those lines. It will not be a manufacture bar-code that can be 
associated with the medication it self. 

Product bar-codes are associated with the product it self allowing companies to 
create databases with this information. With Seeing IA their database only 
contains product names, while En-Vision America's i.d. mate bar code scanner 
database contains the name and information about the product. In an attempt to 
not turn this into a sales pitch you can visit our website for more 
information. 

There are 2 common styles of bar-codes..... 1st is a QR Code or also called 2D 
bar-code. This style actually contains data within the code, like a web 
address, or actual information. 2nd is a Universal Product Code or UPC. This 
style contains a number only and for it to be useful you need to assign 
information to that number in a database. 

UPC is what is found on all products, the key to it being useful to a consumer 
is for a database to be available to them. 

Hope I didn't bore you!

  Hello everyone, 

  I was wondering, is there an App out there that can easily read 
  description bottles? 

  If so, how easy is it to work, if you are not very good at all with 
  using the camera? 

  Thank you, 

  Terri
