PD and progressive fitting height: questions to ask

Understand why a single measurement or virtual preview is not a complete fitting process.

By EyewearPlatform Editorial

PD refers to pupillary distance. Progressive fitting also considers where the lenses sit relative to your eyes in the chosen frame. These details serve different purposes; one does not substitute for the other.

The fitting measurements required depend on the actual lens design and frame. Ask for the requirements before purchasing, and have a qualified optical professional obtain or verify measurements when required.

Do not transfer a fitting height from an old frame to a new frame without review. Differences in frame size, position and adjustment can matter even when the frames look similar.

EyewearPlatform's illustrated try-on does not measure PD or progressive fitting height. If the necessary fitting information cannot be established for an order, that order needs further review before payment and production.
