- The CRA previously required suppliers to retain a copy of the prescription or assessment record for eyeglasses and contact lenses.
- Alternatively, suppliers could retain specific details like issue and expiration dates, eye care professional’s information, and prescription details.
- Feedback led the CRA to revise its requirements.
- Now, suppliers must retain the issue date, eye care professional’s name, and prescription details.
- Retaining a copy of the prescription is no longer mandatory.
