Q: When my optometrist sells me prescription sunglasses, is that sale subject to tax? What if they sell me nonprescription sunglasses?

They are considered the consumer of prescription sunglasses, and tax is due on the vendor’s sale to them. However, tax is generally due on the retail sale of nonprescription sunglasses (cdtfa.ca.gov/lawguides/vol1/…, cdtfa.ca.gov/lawguides/vol2/…).
