You'll need to understand the various components listed. These typically include details such as sphere (SPH), cylinder (CYL), axis, and sometimes additional measurements like pupillary distance (PD). The sphere indicates the degree of nearsightedness (if negative) or farsightedness (if positive). Cylinder and axis values are for astigmatism correction, where the cylinder denotes the amount of astigmatism, and the axis indicates its orientation. Pupillary distance is the distance between your pupils and ensures proper alignment of the lenses.
Consulting with an optometrist or optician for a detailed explanation tailored to your prescription is recommended for accurate understanding.
