If the doctor prescribes SMBXW, is it appropriate to provide Air Optix color lenses?

In this scenario, the choice stating "False" is based on the specific requirements surrounding the prescription of SMBXW. SMBXW indicates a prescription for a certain type of vision correction, likely involving specific parameters such as cylinder and axis measures for astigmatism, which may not be compatible with certain aesthetic contact lenses like Air Optix color lenses.

Air Optix color lenses are primarily designed for cosmetic purposes, and while they can provide vision correction, they may not accommodate higher prescriptions or specific measurements required by certain patients. Furthermore, if the prescription indicates the need for astigmatic correction or other specific criteria, providing color lenses without proper consideration could compromise the patient’s visual health and comfort. Thus, if the prescription demands precise optical qualities that the Air Optix color lenses cannot meet, it would not be appropriate to prescribe them in this case. This is why the statement regarding providing Air Optix color lenses is false when SMBXW is prescribed.
