Your glasses prescription is a series of numbers, usually in a chart, that describe the lenses your eyeglasses need to correct your vision. This chart has two rows, one for your right eye and one for your left. Four columns are used to precisely describe your correction.

SPH or Sphere refers to the amount of spherical error for your eyes, measured in quarters and proceeded by a (+) or (-).

CYL or Cylinder describes astigmatism, a refractive error that causes distorted and blurred vision, measured in quarters and proceeded by a (+) or (-).

AXIS indicates the orientation of astigmatism, measured in degrees 1 to 180.

ADD or NV meaning Near Vision is used for multifocal or reading correction, measured in quarters. This power for bifocal or free-form progressive lenses enlarges immediate vision and is therefore always indicated by a positive sign (+).

O.D. refers to the right eye.

O.S. refers to the left eye.

PD or Pupillary Distance refers to the distance in millimeters between the center of one pupil to the center of the other.

In simple words it is the distance between your two pupils. Usually your eye doctor will include it in your prescription. However, please don’t worry if you don’t have it, it’s very simple to figure it out. We have a tool that you can print out to measure pupillary distance yourself.

Absolutely! We actually prefer it. This way, we can make sure the information is accurate. Simply scan or take a picture of your prescription and send it to us.

Yes. We offer ultra-thin, 1.67 and 1.74 high index lenses, as well as high index progressive no-line bifocal lenses. If your prescription contains a sphere value of -12 to -6 or +4 to +6 or if your prescription contains a cylinder value of -2 to -4 or +2 to +4, then adding high-index lenses to your order is recommended.

Contact lens and eyeglass prescriptions aren't interchangeable. Although the prescriptions may appear similar, they differ in strength. For your safety, we can't use your contact lens prescription to make your prescription lenses same as we can’t use your glasses prescription for contact lenses.

Yes, we do! We work with all major progressive lens brands.

We do offer variety of lens materials such as plastic, polycarbonate and hi-index. Standard 1.59 lenses are made from polycarbonate, which is far thinner and lighter than traditional plastic (CR-39) or glass lenses. Polycarbonate is the most impact-resistant material available and offers 100% UV protection. For stronger prescriptions or customers wanting thinner lenses, we offer 1.67 polyurethane optical and prescription sun lenses. These are thinner and lighter than our standard lenses.

Yes, although polycarbonate and polyurethane lenses are tough, they still can be scratched. That’s why we provide anti scratch coatings (additional fee applies), to keep your lenses scratch free.
