Need help understanding a "Spectacle Rx" (eye appointment results)!


Question: Need help understanding a "Spectacle Rx" (eye appointment results)
Earlier I posted a question about help with an eye exam!. Well, I went to a different doctor who really helped me!. I feel a lot better about this one!. Now I'm just curious what this prescription note means!. There is a chart so I'll try to translate what this says as best as I can!. SPH OD and OS are both 0!.50!. CYL OD and OS are both -1!.00 and AXIS OD is 101 while AXIS OS is 081!. Can anyone translate all of this for me!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
OD and OS refer to right and left eye (sorry if I explain things you already know)
+0!.50 means you are slightly farsighted in both eyes
-1!.00 is your astigmatism correction in both eyes
and the axis represents the axis of your astigmatism correctionWww@Answer-Health@Com

You have mild mixed astigmatism!.

You may find that reading fine print and seeing small details at distance is easier and more comfortable with glasses!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No one can help you with this because we dont know whether you are sphere of +!.50 or a sphere of -!.50!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
