"The doctor was not wrong, the state was wrong, honey"/ The

A citizen complained in Fiks Fare that, after visiting an ophthalmologist at the Specialty Polyclinic No. 1, "Iraniani", she went and got glasses at an optician recommended by that doctor. The optician made a mistake with the prescription and gave him glasses with a larger number.

The citizen makes another visit to the same optician, this time with a different doctor, and it turns out that even the doctor's prescription for the Iranian was not correct...

The complainant explains that she went to the polyclinic and had a visit with ophthalmologist Jonida Dai. The ophthalmologist had visited him and noted the number in the prescription, namely the right eye + 2.5 and the left eye + 2.75. For glasses, the doctor directs him to an optician opposite the polyclinic, since they worked together. The complainant did as the optometrist advised her, but she did not feel well with the glasses. For this, he had consulted the doctor Dai again, but the latter had told him that you will get used to it. "From the concerns I had, I thought that the number of glasses was not right for me," says the whistleblower. She goes and checks the glasses at several other opticians where they all come to the same conclusion. "They found out that the right eye from + 2.5 dioctres had become + 2.75. And the left eye went from + 2.75 to + 3. And 0.25″ cylindrical lenses were added to both eyes, explains the informant. She claims that it was not written in the prescription that she had a cylindrical lens. According to her, the laboratory worker added this to the optician who made the glasses. In addition, she thinks that the numbers prescribed by the ophthalmologist in the prescription are not correct. After she had mentally bought glasses with the number +2 and felt very comfortable with this number, she saw clearly and had no other worries.

The whistleblower meets doctor Dai again and the latter tells her that the prescription is fine, only that the optician must adjust the glasses with the numbers she wrote in the prescription. "Tell her I went to the doctor and she told me to contact you. I'm the one who recommended you there so they should. Don't worry, it's something that is done" the ophthalmologist can be heard saying to the whistleblower. After that, the lady goes once again to the optician where she had her glasses made. There the employee tells him to leave an appointment with the doctor they have as an optician. And so it happens! The private optician visits the complainant and from this visit she tells him that the eye numbers are one +2 and the other +2.25. Then the doctor also checks the glasses that came out of the laboratory of the same optician and justifies that some mistake has been made. "I think you made a mistake in the prescription at the optical laboratory. These are not the glasses for you at all". Anyway, she tells him that the glasses will be redone and invites him to go get them the next day and everything will be compensated by the optician. Regarding the number that Irani's doctor wrote on the prescription, the private optician says "It is not the doctor's fault, but the old state apparatus".

Polyclinic of Specialties No. 1, "Iranian"

Citizen - Maybe you don't remember me?

The doctor - Yes, with the glasses

Citizen - I can't be taught. We talked that day together and ok I tried to keep them, to get used to them, but it's not easy for me with + 2.5 to + 2.75.

The doctor - Yes

"The doctor was not wrong, the state was wrong, honey"/ The

Citizen - In fact, I went to 2-3 opticians a few days later and saw that the number of glasses they gave me said that these opticians did not apply your prescription.

Doctor - What number is there?

Citizen - Now I came to ask you for advice on how to act in this case.

The doctor - Give me the prescription as much as I did?

Citizen – + 2.5 to + 2.75

The doctor - And you get +2.75 with +3 and with a cylinder.

Citizen – Yes

The doctor - You will tell him that I don't feel well with the glasses, I went to the doctor, the doctor tried them and says that her prescription is fine. Well, that's what you want to say. Because I'm the one who recommended you there, so. Don't worry, something will happen.

We return for the visit in the afternoon.

The doctor - How much did he take out?

Citizen – + 2.5 – + 2.75. A number that actually shocked me.

Doctor - You took your glasses and couldn't see with them?

"The doctor was not wrong, the state was wrong, honey"/ The

Citizen – Yes

Doctor - Anyway, we do the visit together and come to a conclusion. Now dear, you have + 2 in one eye and + 2.25 in the other. How much did they cost you?

Citizen – + 2.5 to + 2.75.

Doctor – There are a lot of them, so we'll stay here. I cannot pass + 2.75. From + 1 to + 2.75 is a bomb in the eyes. If you want, I respect the recipe and that's it. We will also measure the other glasses so that I also know what the difference is. I don't doubt the doctor's work at all and normally if the numbers had been fixed exactly you would suffer, you would have difficulties because definitely going from + 1 to + 2.75 is a bit difficult because they are a bit more, but you will get used to it. The fact that they have become even bigger. The laboratory may also make mistakes, but it recovers directly tomorrow. I think that with these glasses you will be very very calm. I have left you + 2 and + 2.25. Look there is an error. It must have been someone else's two prescriptions, and it has nothing to do with you. This will become a recipe mess. This thing (prescription) has nothing to do with this (glasses) at all. In addition to these, there are also inserts from a cylinder that does not have one. And if it was + 3 Clean, the lady would give him a drop to make him vomit, but hey, he couldn't hold it for 5 minutes or 10 minutes. But the fact that it's those angles gives you complete exposure. Okay, we'll have these ready when you come tomorrow, you can pick them up. The doctor was not wrong, but the state, honey. Now the mistake that was made here I will compensate./ tch
