If the lenses are not accurate the optician can return the lenses for another set at no charge,
Opticians who are just Managers of large chains may be less`eager to return lenses. OWNER OPTICIANS

According to Ophthalmologist round lenses were accidentally reversed by Optician. After adjusting lenses; cured. Spherical correction about same bilaterally. Astigmatic correction different. Patients often advised that a few weeks needed to get used to new prescription. So accepted new lenses from Optician.
