How do I read my prescription?

The information contained in your prescription is the lens power required to correct your vision problems.  It consists of sphere power, cylinder power, cylinder axis, bifocal addition, and prism power.  Your prescription may or may not contain all of these numbers.  However your pupillary distance (PD) measurement is needed to complete your order.

• Sphere:  Correction for long or short sight. This can be a plus ‘+’ or minus ‘-’ value.
• Cylinder:  This is a correction for astigmatism if you have one. This can be a plus ‘+’ or minus ‘-’ value. You may or may not have a value of cylinder in your prescription.
• Axis:  The axis for which the correction for astigmatism needs to be set at. This will be present only if you have a value in cylinder.  This can be a number between 1 and 180.
• Addition:  (“Add”)  Additional plus power in the lower portion of a multifocal lens, that is required for near vision in progressive, bifocal, or trifocal lenses.
• Prism:  This is not normally filled in on your prescription. Occasionally, when the two eyes are not properly aligned and looking at the same thing, prism can be ground into the lenses to re-align them.
• Base:  “Base In”, “Base Out”, “Base Up”, and “Base Down” are the four positions for prism in eyeglasses.  Orientations between the four positions can be specified by using combinations of horizontal and vertical prisms in the same lens.
• Pupillary distance (PD):  Your PD is the distance from the center of the pupil (black spot) in one eye to the center of the pupil in the other eye.  Your PD measurement improves the positioning of your lenses within the eyeglass frame.  Be sure that you ask for your PD measurement when you have your eyes examined and have it added to your prescription.
• OD:  right eye
• OS:  left eye

What is my pupillary distance (PD)?

Your PD is the distance from the center of the pupil (black spot) in one eye to the center of the pupil in your other eye. Your PD measurement improves the positioning of your lenses within the eyeglass frame. Be sure you ask for your PD measurement when you have your eyes examined and have it added to your prescription.

How to buy Designer label eyeglasses for CHEAP!

If you have tried to shop for eyeglasses at your local Optical store you will have noticed that the price charged tends to be rather luxurious. Add the fact you want Brand Name Designer labels and the prices simply sky rocket!

Why does this happen?

The answer is simple – Eye Glass designers are no different than clothing designers (in fact tend to be the same ones – Armani, D&G, Guess, DKNY, Ray-Ban, Coach etc.) and these designers charge many, many millions of dollars to ‘license’ their name to the manufacturer, there is no option but to pass this cost on to the consumer.
