Step 3: Measuring Your PD

What is your Pupillary Distance (PD)?

Your Pupillary Distance (PD) is the distance in millimeters between your pupils. This is an important measurement that helps us center your prescription correctly in your frames. If your doctor did not include your PD on your prescription you can request for them to provide you with this measurement. Alternatively you are able to measure this yourself. To measure your PD, you will look straight ahead into a mirror and position the ruler right over the bridge of your nose. Beginning with the right eye, line up the zero end of the ruler at your pupil, then measure the distance from your right to your left pupil. The millimeter number that lines up with your left pupil is the measurement you want. Please note the average adult's PD is between 54-74 mm. A Kids' PD is typically between 43-58 mm.
