When you need glasses, your optometrist will give you a prescription for corrective lenses. Eyeglass prescriptions can be written in different formats, usually in horizontal rows. The first row is for the right eye (OD), and the second row is for the left eye (OS). Each row contains three values: Sphere (SPH), Cylinder (CYL), and Axis.

The SPH number corrects nearsightedness (indicated with a minus sign) or farsightedness (indicated with a plus sign). The CYL and Axis numbers correct astigmatism. There may also be an ADD field for reading power in bifocal or progressive lenses.

Some eyeglass prescriptions include the pupillary distance (PD) measurement, which is the distance between your pupils. PD is important for determining the optical center of the lens for clear and accurate vision.

When ordering online, please provide your PD

How to Read Your Prescription

Glasses Prescription (SPH)

Your glasses prescription can be measured by an optometrist (OD) or ophthalmologist (MD), but the information belongs to you and you should leave the doctor’s office with a copy of your glasses prescription. The glasses prescription can be used for any kind of prescription lenses on any kind of eyeglasses; your glasses prescription is not restricted to glasses that may be recommended by the doctor.

Also, be sure to ask the doctor to measure your pupil distance and write that down on the eyeglasses prescription as well. If you have your eyeglasses prescription with your pupil distance when you leave your eye doctor’s office, then you can buy glasses with that prescription at any eyeglasses store.

Once you have your glasses prescription, you can submit your prescription to us. We can read your eyeglasses prescription and then help find the best prescription eye glasses lens for you. For multifocal orders, we require that you send your prescription to us.

Eyeglasses prescriptions have a certain format that is typically followed. The first line of your glasses prescription is always for the right eye, sometimes designated the OD. The second line is for the left eye, sometimes designated OS. The glasses prescription for each eye is divided into Sphere, Cylinder, and Axis values. It is common to have no values for any one of these, in which case you might see the letters PL or plano, or to have values for all of these. Sometimes the eyeglasses prescription may say OU which means both eyes.

Pupil Distance PD

An accurate pupil distance is a required measurement in order to make prescription glasses. Your adult PD never changes, and it averages 60 millimeters (mm) for women, and 64 mm for men. Sometimes your eye doctor will write your PD for each eye (for example 33/34, called a monocular pd). Or, the eye doctor may write the PD as 67/64. This means that your PD for distance vision (or DPD) is 67, and for near vision (or NPD, for reading eyeglasses or multifocal lenses) it is
