Bravo for state societies working together!!
NYSSO, New York State Society of Opticians, Creates Sample Forms to Assist Member Compliance with new FTC Rule
The new FTC Rule, which goes into effect on October 16, 2020, will require opticians who fit contact lenses to provide patients with their prescription. To help members comply, NYSSO has created two forms that members can download and use to provide the prescription and document a patient's receipt of it.
The forms are available in Microsoft Word format and are free for members to edit and brand with their own business information.

Thank you for sharing NYSSO!!!
