Don't step on the pitfalls of optometry and glasses fitting
Chongqing News (Reporter Liu Ming): The market supervision department of Chongqing recently released a special consumption reminder for optometry and glasses measurement, providing practical guidance for consumers from four dimensions: qualification inspection, equipment calibration, parameter verification, and voucher retention.
The market supervision department of Chongqing reminds consumers to choose eyeglass manufacturing and fitting places that have legal business qualifications, standardized management, and are equipped with professional optometry and fitting personnel. Consumers can actively check the qualification disclosure of their stores. For stores with incomplete qualifications, simple business premises, and non-standard processes, it is recommended to choose carefully.
According to regulations, measuring instruments such as optometry instruments, refractometers, and optometry lens boxes are mandatory calibration measuring instruments and must be calibrated and qualified by legal metrological calibration institutions before they can be used. When consumers choose an eyewear store, they should pay attention to whether the measuring instruments used in the store have been verified and qualified, and whether the "mandatory verification qualified" label within the validity period has been posted.
When taking glasses, it is necessary to check whether there are any defects in the appearance of the glasses, whether there are gaps between the glasses lens and the lens ring after assembly, and whether the information such as the lens brand, refractive index, and film layer matches the order agreement. It is also possible to negotiate with the merchant to use a refractometer to measure the parameters of the finished glasses on site and confirm that the assembled glasses meet the relevant national requirements for assembling glasses.
After the completion of glasses fitting, it is necessary to properly keep the prescription sheet, glasses fitting order, invoice or receipt, original factory single piece independent sealed small package of lenses, glasses frame factory hang tag label and other consumption vouchers.
