Will eyeglass Rx work for contact lenses?
Will eyeglass Rx work for contact lenses?
Not really since the eyeglass prescription and contact lens specifications are not one and the same. You need to be evaluated and fitted for contact lenses and given instructions on how to take care of the contact lens as well, otherwise you might wear them out prematurely. If you are currently only wearing eyeglasses you should go back to your doctor and be fitted for contact lenses as well remembering to ask for a copy of your contact lens specifications.
