  1. CONTACT LENS RULE. The Fairness to Contact Lens Consumers Act, codified at 15 U.S.C. 7601-7610, also known as the Contact Lens Rule governs the release, verification, and sale of contact lens prescriptions, and applies to your use of the Website for purchase of our contact lenses and services.
    1. Valid Prescription. You are responsible for the information you provide to Western Biotech regarding your prescription. You must have a valid prescription from a qualified prescriber, qualified to provide a contact lens prescription under the laws of the state where the prescription was issued. If you have a valid prescription, but do not have a copy of it to provide Western Biotech with the information regarding your prescription, then please contact your prescriber who issued your prescription. Remember, by law you have a right to your prescription from your prescriber, at no extra cost. Your prescriber cannot require you to pay an extra fee, buy eyeglasses or contact lenses, or sign a waiver or form in exchange for your prescription.

You have the freedom to choose to buy your contact lenses from any seller; however, your prescriber may list a specific brand of contact lenses on your prescription, if your prescriber thinks that no other brand of contact lenses is similar to the brand prescribed, and your eyes may be affected if you switch to any other brand. Your prescriber must respect your freedom to choose by NOT prescribing a specific brand of contact lenses unless it is absolutely necessary, beneficial to you and there are no other choices available in the market.

Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitration tribunal shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. Payment of all filing, administration, attorneys’ and arbitration tribunal’s fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.
    5. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution. Western Biotech is interested in resolving any and all claims and disputes amicably and efficiently. We believe most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing Western Biotech’s customer support at contact@westernbiotech.com. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to arbitrate must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute. The Notice of Dispute shall be sent to Western Biotech, LLC, Attention: Notice of Dispute, Legal Department at the address as shown on our Website. The Notice of Dispute must describe the nature and basis of the claim or the dispute, and set forth the specific relief requested. If you and Western Biotech do not resolve the claim or the dispute within ninety (90) calendar days after the Notice of Dispute is received, you or Western Biotech may commence an arbitration proceeding. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
