PLZ HELP - prescription (optometry)

Hi, I hope you guys are well. I have a question. My cousin who’s 15 got this prescription and wears bifocals:

RE: sph: 0.00 cyl: 0.00 axis: -
LE: sph: 0.00 cyl: 0.00 axis: -

Reading Add: +1.50 R+L

What form of prescription is this. For example is it aspheric, toric, meniscus etc. I’m not sure, so was hoping you wonderful people would help :smile:

None of the above... It is bifocal prescription...
Aspheric and meniscus are lens designs and not prescriptions. A doctor can recommend a certain design but this is not the case.
If you want to order glasses there is a lot of information missing.
