A prescription for glasses you can refer to the district hospital. Make an appointment with the doctor, optometrist. The specialist will check your eyesight acuity, measure intraocular pressure, the distance between the pupils, will assess the condition of the cornea and, if necessary, will prescribe the necessary treatment. It is possible that the ophthalmologist can recommend special therapeutic points or advise you to order two pairs – one for reading and one for everyday wear. Instead, you can ask for a prescription for Varifocal (progressive) lenses, which combine the functions of glasses to improve vision near and far.

This is especially important for those who require complex lenses to correct astigmatism or prism for "lazy eye". Regular glasses correcting nearsightedness or farsightedness, it is recommended to update annually, and a prescription for them every two years.
