1. Obtaining a Valid Prescription

  • Schedule an Eye Exam:
    Ensure you have a comprehensive eye exam from an optometrist or ophthalmologist. Your prescription should be up-to-date and clearly list all the necessary parameters.

2. Understanding Your Prescription Parameters

When reviewing your prescription, please take note of the following key parameters:

  • Sphere (SPH):
    Indicates the degree of nearsightedness or farsightedness. For example: -2.75 or +1.50.

  • Cylinder (CYL):
    Measures astigmatism. If you do not have astigmatism, this value may be listed as “0” or left blank.

  • Axis:
    Required if you have astigmatism, this value (ranging from 0° to 180°) defines the orientation of the cylinder correction.

  • Pupillary Distance (PD):
    The distance between your pupils, measured in millimeters (mm). In some cases, you may need to provide both distance PD and near PD.

  • Addition (ADD):
    This is applicable if you require multifocal or progressive lenses and is commonly used for reading or presbyopia correction.

      • Cylinder (CYL): e.g., -0.25

      • Axis: e.g., 170°

    • Pupillary Distance (PD): Provide the total PD (e.g., 62mm) or individual values for each eye if required (e.g., 31mm/31mm).

    • Addition (ADD): If you need multifocal lenses, input the additional reading prescription.

  4. Review and Submit:

4. Important Considerations

  • Accuracy of Data:
    Ensure that all prescription details are accurate and match your latest eye exam results. Incorrect information may lead to improperly crafted lenses, affecting visual clarity and comfort.

  • Units of Measurement:
    Prescriptions typically use diopters (D) for lens power and millimeters (mm) for pupillary distance. Verify that you are entering the correct units.

  • Need Assistance?
    If you have any uncertainties or need help measuring your PD, please consult your eye care professional or contact our customer support for guidance.

  • Regular Updates:
    It’s important to have your eyes examined regularly to ensure that your prescription remains up-to-date, as vision can change over time.
