Virtual Mirror
Back to FAQ Home

What is the virtual mirror?

We developed the virtual mirror so people can try on their glasses before purchasing. All glasses will be resized in proportion to your face, so that you will really get a good idea of how each frame will look on you.

Why does the virtual mirror ask for my PD?

pupillary distance (pd)

PD is the distance between your pupils.

When you upload a picture to try on frames, you will be asked for your PD (pupillary distance). This measurement is the distance between your pupils when looking in the distance, and is necessary to be sure that your glasses are resized in proportion to your face.

If you don't know what your PD is, you can calculate it using our online PD meter. Instructions for the picture needed to measure your PD can be found here.

Just for trying on pictures, you could use an estimate. The average PD for men is 65, for women it's 62. If your eyes are fairly close set, subtract 3 or 4 mm from these averages. But keep in mind that  to order glasses, you will need an accurate PD measurement!

How do I open the virtual mirror?

There are several different ways of launching the virtual mirror.
