| 2020-14206 | Contact Lens Rule | Rule | The FTC is publishing a final rule to implement amendments to the Contact Lens Rule. These amendments require that prescribing eye care practitioners obtain a confirmation of prescription release from patients after releasing a contact lens prescription and maintain each such acknowledgment for a period of not less than three years. The Commission is permitting prescribers to comply with automatic prescription release via electronic delivery in certain circumstances. Further, these amendments specify a time period for prescribers to respond to requests for prescriptions; clarify and institute additional requirements for automated telephone verification messages; more precisely delineate what constitutes unlawful alteration of a prescription; and require that sellers provide a method for, and notice of the method for, patient prescription presentation. | 2020-08-17 | 2020 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/08/17/2020-14206/contact-lens-rule | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-08-17/pdf/2020-14206.pdf | Federal Trade Commission | 192 | The FTC is publishing a final rule to implement amendments to the Contact Lens Rule.
