How to Measure Your Pupillary Distance (PD)?

Does Glass Frame Size Depend on Pupillary Distance?

The simple answer is yes. Pupillary distance may affect the frame size of your glasses, but not their shape. Also, this measure is important for choosing the right size and shape of the lenses. Many people often ignore the frame size when they choose eyeglasses. Different frames would affect pupillary distance since the frame size may determine the optical center. It is especially true with bigger frames and lenses. To avoid side effects linked to vision, make sure to consult your doctor or optician to choose a properly fitted glass frame. 5 measurements should be considered, including the bridge, temple arms, lens width, lens height, and frame width.
