I see that you offer a full coverage warranty on all eyeglass purchases.

What does that mean?

All Eyespex.com glasses are covered with a full warranty. The warranty provides buyers with two years of coverage for glasses with anti-glare coating and one year on all glasses without anti-glare.



I'm ready to place my order on Eyespex.com. What is my frame size?

If you already own a pair of eyeglasses that fit you well, you can find your frame size simply by looking on the inside of your eyeglass temples (arm pieces or ear pieces) or on the back of the bridge (piece that goes over your nose). There, you can quickly identify your exact frame measurements, as well as the color, model number and product brand or designer. You will enter this information when completing your purchase on Eyespex.com.

Measuring your frame size includes:

Eye size

This is a horizontal measurement from the outermost edges of the lenses. Approximately 40 – 62 mil.

Follow this chart for a general rule of thumb on eye size.

  • 39 – 46 mil for toddlers and children

  • 46 – 51 mil for average or medium size adults

  • 52 – 56 mil for larger adults with larger face shapes

  • >58 mil for larger adults with larger face shapes, or for oversized styles of frames

Bridge size

This is the distance measured between your lenses and generally falls somewhere within 14 – 24 mil.

Temple length

This is the length of the temple piece, which is also referred to as the arm piece or ear piece. Approximately 120 – 150 mil.For example, your eyeglasses may read 49 17-140. This means an eye size of 49, bridge size of 17 and temple length of 140. In some cases, your eyeglasses may show a “B” measurement if you have bifocals or progressive lenses. This tells you how deep the lenses are.

 

If you do not own a pair of eyeglasses, or if your current pair does not fit you well, you should get measured at a local optical store. You can also use the virtual try on tool at Eyespex.com to get a better idea of how a particular pair of glasses may look on your face. Be sure to take advantage of the virtual try on measurement tools in order to choose a pair of frames that fits you well.

 


How do I read my eyeglass prescription?

An eyeglass prescription is written in a standardized format and notation, so it can be interpreted worldwide – although the actual chart or graph that the prescription is written on may vary from doctor to doctor.

Let’s look at a sample prescription and break it down:



 

SPH

CYL

AXIS

PRISM

ADD

OD

-2.00

-1.00

180

1^

+0.75

OS

 

 

 

 

 

PD

   57mm

Which Eye :

The letters preceding the set of numbers (or prescription) indicate which eye – right or left.  

  • OD (Oculus Dexter) is the right eye.

  • OS (Oculus Sinister) is the left eye.

  • OU (Oculus Uterque, Oculus Unitas or Oculus Uniter) means both eyes. Although OU is not a common field on a prescription, you may see it from time to time.

  • In the sample shown, the prescription is written for the right eye.


Sphere (SPH) :

This measurement indicates the extent of nearsightedness or farsightedness.

  • The first number (-2.00) indicates the spherical refractive error (farsightedness or nearsightedness).

  • In this case, there is a minus sign in front of the 2.00, which represents nearsightedness.

  • A plus sign indicates farsightedness.


Cylinder (CYL) :

This measurement refers to the amount of astigmatism in the eye. Astigmatism results from an irregularly shaped cornea. You may also hear astigmatism described as a football-shaped eye.

  • The second number (-1.00) is the astigmatism.

  • If there is no astigmatism, your prescription might read DS or SPH after the first number to let the optician know that the doctor didn’t miss the CYL field and in fact, there is no astigmatism.


Axis :

This measurement describes the astigmatism in degrees on a horizontal axis, since astigmatism can be measured in any direction.

  • The final number (180) is the direction of the astigmatism.

  • The Axis is shown as a number from 90 to 180.


Prism :

If your prescription is followed by a small number with a superscript, ie. 1^, the number indicates prism correction. There may be more than one set of prism number for each eye.


Additional (ADD) :

Sometimes there is an additional measurement that indicates a needed reading strength (bifocal, trifocal or progressive).

  • This measurement usually goes from +0.75 to +3.00.


Pupillary Distance (PD) :

This measurement is the distance between the centers of the pupils in each eye, and is measured in millimeters.

  • This measurement is especially important when ordering eyeglasses online as it correctly positions lenses to the center of the pupils.

  • PD is also occasionally referred to as interpupillary distance (IPD).

  • Your prescripti on may contain two PD numbers.


How do I use the virtual try-on tool?

The Eyespex.com virtual try-on tool should be available very soon! It will let you see how a particular pair of frames will look on you and scales them to your face shape and size. Here’s how it works:

1. Upload an image of your face and “try on” any frame from the Eyespex.com catalog
2. Scale the image to the correct size so that you receive a realistic “try on” experience
3. Use the remote digital measurement tool to determine very accurate measurements of your face and eyes, ensuring a better fitting pair of glasses
4. See various simulations such as lens thickness, anti-glare coating, photochromic lenses and tints, so you can see how these enhancements and upgrades will look on you
5. Email images to friends and family for a second opinion
6. Watch videos on various topics such as anti-glare coating and tints to learn more about your options
