prescription eyewear

Custom lens glasses

Prescription eyewear is glasses or contact lenses made to correct a specific person's vision.

The prescription comes from an eye exam and specifies the lens strength needed: She picked up her new prescription eyewear from the optician.

The term distinguishes corrective lenses from sunglasses or safety glasses worn without vision correction.
