Can anyone explain this eye prescription?

Question

- 1.50 DS

- 1.00 - 0.25 X 065

which one is left and right? Its actually DS not OS in the prescription. I dont know what DS means, and the prescription is not really as clear. Thanks for the explanations.

Answer 1

isn't DS diopters ?

Answer 2

The DS means Dioptors sphere.

Answer 3

Hey, just go to some optical shop and ask the guy for knowing what that prescription says. Even I don't understand what it says. There is not enough information.

Answer 4

It's near impossible to tell from that. my presciption is nothing like that. The best advice I would say is to go back to whoever gave you that and ask for an explaination, as they really should have told you what it meant :)

Answer 5

The right eye is always first on a prescription.

-1.50 sphere is the right

-1.00 -0.25 X 065 is the left.

That 0.25 on the left is a very minor astgmatism correction , and the 065 is the axis.
