If a patient has the following prescription, what frame qualities do you need to look for? Choose all that apply.

Prescription: OD -9.00 -1.00 X 26 OD -8.50 -1.00 X 35
  1. The frame needs to not be oversized
  2. The frame should not be square
  3. The frame should be sturdy
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answers: B and C - The prescription above needs to be put in a frame that is not oversized or square but needs to be sturdy.

This prescription is going to be thick even with thinner lenses. To avoid any unnecessary weight the frame should be the proper size without being too big. In addition a square frame will show much thicker edges of the lens. And this prescription needs to be put in a sturdy frame that will be able to hold it.
