Do opticians verify prescriptions when you get eyeglasses?

[Castleberry]

The ophthalmologist's name should be on the prescription. Along with their address and phone number. If the optician has a question about the prescription, or thinks it may have been written incorrectly, they can call the doctor. Otherwise there shouldn't be any need to verify it.

Prescriptions aren't anywhere online. There is nothing that can be verified that way. If there is a suspected problem with the prescription ,we just call the Dr. who wrote it.
