SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Contact Lens Rule (Rule), 16
CFR part 315.
OMB Control Number: 3084–0127.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: The Rule was promulgated
by the FTC pursuant to the Fairness to
Contact Lens Consumers Act (FCLCA),
Pub. L. 108–164 (Dec. 6, 2003), which
was enacted to enable consumers to
purchase contact lenses from the seller
of their choice. The Rule became
effective on August 2, 2004, and was
most recently amended in 2020.1 As
mandated by the FCLCA, the Rule
requires the release and verification of
contact lens prescriptions which are
generally valid for one year and
contains recordkeeping requirements
applying to both prescribers and sellers
of contact lenses.
Specifically, the Rule requires that
prescribers provide a copy of the
prescription to the consumer upon the
completion of a contact lens fitting,
even if the patient does not request it,
and verify or provide prescriptions to
authorized third parties. The Rule also
mandates that a contact lens seller may
sell contact lenses only in accordance
with a prescription that the seller either:
(a) has received from the patient or
prescriber; or (b) has verified through
direct communication with the
prescriber. Additional provisions in the
Rule that constitute collections of
information as defined by 5 CFR
1320.3(c) require that sellers who use
calls containing automated verification
messages record the entire call, and
preserve such recordings for at least
three years. In addition, the Rule
requires that prescribers either: (a)
obtain from patients, and maintain for a
period of not less than three years, a
signed confirmation of prescription
release on a separate stand-alone
