Figuring out what all of those numbers and letters on your prescription mean can be a little tricky, but we've got that covered. Come check out our tutorial on how to read your prescription!
What is "PD" and how do I get mine?
PD, or pupilalry distance, is the distance in millimeters between the center of one pupil to the other measured in millimeters. Your PD is usually included in your prescription. If not, you can measure your PD yourself or contact your eye doctor to measure it for you.
How can I measure my PD?
You can do it yourself or have someone else measure it using a mirror and a ruler. Place a ruler, millimeter side up, directly under the center of your right or left pupil. While looking straight ahead, measure the distance from the center of your left pupil to the center of your right pupil. Repeat for accuracy. Note that the average PD is between 57 and 65mm.

Can I use contact lens prescription for ordering glasses?
Contact prescriptions and eyeglasses prescriptions differ, and using them interchangeably will result in problems with your glasses. Make sure you have the correct prescription before entering it.

How do I measure my frames?
Knowing the right measurement for your frames is important when shopping for glasses online. If you can no longer read the numbers on the inside of your frame, you can always try measuring by hand. Just remember, when measuring frame width, you need to measure from temple screw to temple screw. For temple length you need to measure from the temple screw to the temple tip. Check out our tutorial on how to read frame measurements so you can be sure your're selecting glasses that fit you best.

We offer quality lenses that are checked for perfection at every step of our manufacturing process. We offer full rim, semi-rimless, and rimless frames to fit every style and budget.
Can I order lenses that are both color tinted and photochromic?
Unfortunately, no. Due to the way basic color tint and photochromic are applied, they cannot be added to the same lens.
Can I buy the frames alone?
Yes! Choose "Non-prescription" lenses while in the "Usage" section of our lens selection process. You can remove your lenses at home once your order has arrived.
