MEASURING Pupillary Distance
For perfect vision, it is extremely important that the optical center of the lenses is directly in front of the eye. The magic word for this is PD/pupillary distance! This is the distance between the center of the nose and the center of the pupil, for the right and left eye. Sometimes it is also given as a value, in which case it is the distance between the right and left pupils. You will find the glasses snake in the fitting box. Simply place it centered on the child's nose. The person measuring sits opposite each other about an arm's length away and you look deeply into each other's eyes. Now measure the eye directly opposite and write down the value. Important: left measures right and vice versa. If you need help, just write to us.
contactDuring the ordering process you have the option of taking a digital measurement. This is very precise. All you need is your child and a standard card, e.g. an ID card.
After you have chosen your glasses and click on "Select lenses", you will have the option to measure the PD.
Alternatively, you can find the glasses snake in the fitting box. Simply place it centrally on the child's nose.

Be careful, left measures right and vice versa. If you need help, just write to us.
