Change Found In Prescription For Glasses. Can Any Online Doctor Help Me?
2.5 years ago my prescription for glasses was:
-2.25 -0.50 X 23 +2.00
-2.25 -0.50 X 40
My new prescription for glasses reads:
-2.25 + 0.50 110 +2.25
-2.00 + 0.50 115
Because the woman who was writing down my prescription was distracted at the time, I was wondering if the change indicated (CYL from - to +, and Axis from 23, 40 to 110, 115) seemed reasonable. Or should I contact my doctor's office and confirm?

Hi and welcome to HCM!
In your case the best thing to do is to contact your doctor and confirm everything to be shure that you are taking the exact prescription.
