Frequently Asked Questions
Is Prescription Renewal a real eye exam?
We provide you with a real vision test to check if your vision has changed from your current prescription.Your results from the vision test are reviewed by a certified and licensed doctor in your state who will renew your prescription if all looks good.
Prescription Renewal is not a comprehensive eye exam and cannot check the health of your eyes.If we find your vision has changed, we will refer you for a comprehensive eye exam at one of our nearby locations.
When is Prescription Renewal Available?
Our guided experience is available from Monday through Saturday 10:00 am - 6:00 pm EST.
Do I need my current prescription?
Yes, the doctor needs to know what prescription to renew. Unless you got your prescription from us, we’ll need you to provide a photo of your doctor's signed prescription.
I can still see out of my current eyewear, but my prescription expired. Can you help?
Yes, that’s exactly what we do. Our independent eye doctors will review your results and renew your prescription for you if all looks good so you can buy your new contacts or glasses right away.
Is Prescription Renewal the same thing as a comprehensive eye exam?
No. Prescription Renewal only checks how well you see, and does not provide a full examination of your vision health.
Will a real eye doctor review my vision test?
Yes! The results of your vision test will be reviewed by an independent eye care doctor licensed in your state, and they will issue your prescription if everything looks good.
Can I use my phone or mobile device?
No. Prescription Renewal requires you to be on a laptop or desktop computer to be able to have the best experience and get accurate results on your test.
What do I need to renew my prescription?
You will need internet access, 6 feet of space, and a desktop or laptop computer with a webcam and microphone. Make sure to be in a well-lit, quiet area. You will also need to wear your current eyewear and have your current doctor’s signed prescription handy. No head or face coverings.
What computer permissions are needed?
Our vision test requires microphone and camera access so our live technician can hear you and guide you on screen.
Do I need to wear my eyewear during Prescription Renewal?
Yes. You will be asked to read letters on a digital eye chart as part of the vision test. This helps the doctor know if your current prescription is still providing you with clear, accurate vision.
Is Prescription Renewal Free?
Your vision test is free when you purchase contacts or glasses with us, otherwise it’s $20.
Is there an age restriction for Prescription Renewal?
Yes. Prescription renewal is only valid for patients between the ages of 18 and 65 years old. If you are out of that age range, we suggest you schedule an in-store eye exam.
Can I submit my receipt for prescription renewal to my insurance provider for reimbursement?
No. Insurance only covers a comprehensive eye exam and this is a renewal, but the exam is free when you purchase your eyewear with Stanton Optical.
