Video text transcript:

Your new glasses are on their way. But how do you know these have been fitted correctly?

For the lenses, there are 2 dimensions that are very important. One is your PD, or pupillary distance. The other measurement is the fitting height.

How are these measurement obtained?

If you are lucky, your eye doctor has noted your PD on your prescription. But most commonly, this is measured by the optician, who sells you your glasses.

What do you do if  your eye doctor or optician does not want to give you your PD? Unfortunately, this is not an uncommon occurrence. They do not like to make it easy for you to buy your glasses on-line.

Fortunately, visio-rx is the only website that has a simple and reliable on-line tool that you can use to accurately measure your PD with a few clicks of the mouse.

Measuring the fitting height is a different cup of tea. Easy to do in person by an optician.  Why are fitting height and PD so important?

Lenses have a focal point, and optimal vision only occurs when the lens optical center is right in front of your pupil. If the lens optical center is not in front of your pupil, you will be looking through a different area of the lens.

A prism effect will occur, resulting in image shift and blurriness.

For progressive lenses, correct PD and fitting height are crucial. Many people have slightly different so called monocular PD's - or the distance of each pupil to the middle of your nose bridge.

Sometimes, your eye doctor or optician may have noted this on your prescription. But often they will not have done so. Our UNIQUE online PD meter is great for accurately measuring distance PD. Unfortunately, it cannot measure monocular PD, which is what you really need for multifocal lenses like progressives or bifocals.

One solution is to ask your optician to measure your monocular PD. Some will do this for a small fee. But if your optician is unwilling to help you out, don't dispair.

Visio-Rx offers PD meter rentals so you can measure this in the comfort of your own home. That way, you can measure the PD's of friends and family, so everyone can buy their glasses online.

Improperly fitted progressive lenses are no good at all.  It is important the eye can look through the intermediate channel, which is relatively narrow, hence the importance of proper fitting.

You may be wondering why you have not read about the monocular PD and vertical fitting height on other websites. Good question - you should probably ask them. None of the eyewear websites mention this, because they hope you will not notice.
They use averages, which is fine if you're an average person. But how would you know? A good optician will always measure this.

When buying your glasses on the internet, you want to take advantage of the cost savings. Yet you want to feel confident that your glasses have been fitted correctly.

At visio-rx, we have put a lot of thought into how to fit your glasses as if they were measured by an optician in person. Please follow the instruction for taking a few pictures and we can ensure your lenses are fitted correctly.

Uh oh! The fit of the frame you have selected is not quite right. It is easy to adjust the frame when you fit it in person.

How do websites do this? Other websites will simply tell you to see an optician. Something most customers are not too keen on doing with a new pair of glasses that was not bought there.

At visio-rx, we offer you the possibility of uploading a couple of pictures. That will allow us to accurately pre-adjust your chosen frame based on your personal dimensions.

And we have short video's to explain minor adjustments. So when your new glasses are delivered to your doorstep...We want them to fit comfortably the first time you put them on. And we provide you with easy instructions how to double check that the lenses have been  fitted properly.

It is important to us for you to feel secure that you have received a quality pair of glasses, at a great price.
