§ 1727 - Expiration date - Vermont Statutes

§ 1727. Expiration date

An optometrist shall state the expiration date on the face of every prescription written by that optometrist for contact lenses. The expiration date shall be no earlier than one year after the examination date unless a medical or refractive problem affecting vision requires an earlier expiration date. An optometrist may not refuse to give the buyer a copy of the buyer's prescription after the expiration date; however the copy shall be clearly marked to indicate that it is an expired prescription. (Added 1993, No. 108 (Adj. Sess.), § 9.)
