Overprescription is where an optometrist prescribes more diopters than you need to see clearly.
This is easily done, as any percieved benefit from the additional lenses given is often on the fringes of making any real difference in your eyesight. It might be very minor, but once the optometrist is aware there is some improvement in eyesight, no matter how small, often the additional diopters remain.
Overprescription is very easy to correct by wearing less diopters. The wearer never needed those diopters in the first place.
