How will you use your glasses?

Single Vision - Distance

  • You wear your spectacles all day, but don't have bifocals or multifocal (Progressive) lenses.
  • You need them to see things in the distance, e.g. for driving, but can also leave them on for close vision.
  • You wear them most of the time for general everyday use.

Single Vision - Reading

  • You mostly need your spectacles to read things close to you: papers, documents etc., but do not need them to see things in the distance.

Single Vision - Computer work

  • You need these spectacles for when you're working on the computer or something else at arms length.

Bifocal

  • Your spectacles have a definite line on the lenses which separates distance and near vision segments.
  • Your prescription will contain a measurement called ADD.

Multifocal

  • There is no line on the lenses of your spectacles but the bottom of the lenses is stronger for close work while the top of the lenses gives you clear distance vision.
  • Multifocals (Progressives) give you both distance and near vision.
  • Your prescription will contain a measurement called ADD.

What is my Pupillary Distance (PD)?

Your papillary distance (PD) is the distance between the centre of one pupil to the centre of the other pupil while your vision is fixed on a distant target. The industry standard is to have this measurement expressed in millimeters.

This measurement is important in the making of your prescription spectacle as it ensures that the optical centres of your spectacles lenses are aligned to your pupil positions.

Positioning lenses correctly in relation to the centre of the pupils is especially important for higher powered lenses (above 2 diopters).

Your PD will be measured by your eyecare practitioner at the time of your eye test.

If your spectacle prescription does not include your PD measurement you can:

  • Call your eyecare practitioner and request it (this is our preferred procedure)
  • or You can measure your own PD using one of the following methods

Measuring Your Own Pupillary Distance (PD)

  • Stand one meter (approximately) away from a mirror.
  • With or without your spectacles on, close your right eye and centre the zero millimetre marker of a ruler at the centre of your left eye.
  • To ensure the ruler is stable during the measurement, rest the ruler on the bridge of your nose during this procedure.
  • Now, holding the ruler steady, open your right eye and close our left eye.
  • Using your finger or thumb, mark the ruler where your right eye pupil centre is located.
  • The millimetre mark of your thumb placement is your PD measurement.
  • Complete this procedure three or more times to ensure consistency of your measurement.
