I do realize that I should get a new prescription sometime soon. But over the years, people have suggested I can order glasses online. But how could I do that when the prescription looks like Greek?

The whole point of my post/question is to learn to decipher doctor’s chicken scratch handwriting.

Didn’t sound like you were geniunely asking for advice on how to decipher. To me, the post title is more or less “Wtf is this shit?”.

Edit: Which is exactly what the subtitle said.

Call them that year.

By calling them within a decent timeframe after the prescription is handed.

I think the whole point of the post was a bitchrant on how bad the handwriting is, and how much of a BS it is that they can’t take the extra 15 seconds to make it legible. On which point, I’m 100% on board. It is BS and I have bitchranted to the doctors office about this same exact issue before, going so far as comparing my chicken scratch handwriting to calligraphy when compared to the script they provided.
