How to measure pupillary distance

CALIFORNIA CITY, Calif. - Sept. 19, 2019 - PRLog -- WHAT IS PUPILLARY DISTANCE FOR GLASSES?

Pupillary Distance (PD) is measured by the distance between the pupils of your right and left eye. The pupillary distance measurement is used when fitting your lenses as every set of prescription lenses has an "optical center" determining where the eyes will look through the lenses. The distance between the optical centers of your lenses should be the same as the distance between your pupils. Therefore, pupillary distance should be as accurate as possible to properly correct your vision. Our following guide will help you measure your own pupillary distance.
