Hi,
I think it should be the doctors prerogative , in which case you need a dilated check n which you may not ..depending on many factors .
eye power can be measured correctly with or without dilatation depending on age, type of number etc..
Both number can look different to you, doctor will decide what to prescribe !

Hello
Cycloplegic refraction helps to measure eye power accurately as accommodation is relaxed.
However PMT or post mydriatic test is equally important
