How to Read an Eyeglass Prescription

SPH (Sphere)

Spherical error, or overall power of lens is the basic part of your prescription. A (+) means you have trouble seeing near, and a (-) means you have trouble seeing things faraway.

CYL (Cylinder) & Axis

A cylinder value indicates astigmatisms or perpetually blurry vision. Axis—measured between 1 and 180°— tell us the orientation of the astigmatism

ADD (Addition)

This number is sometimes written NV for near vision and is used for multifocal lenses and readers

PD (Pupillary Distance)

It's just what sounds like—the distance in millimeters (mm) between your pupils. An average PD measurement is 63 mm, but varies by person. If it's not on the prescription, you can measure it yourself by:
• printing the downloadable PD ruler.
• watching our tutorial video.

PRISM

We can process prism prescriptions to correct eye orientation

Vertical Prism is used to help correct vertical eye misalignments and is prescribed in opposite directions for both eyes

Horizontal Prism is used to help correct lateral eye misalignments and is always prescribed in the same direction for both eyes

Vintage Eyeglass Frames for Every Era

Pay tribute to the fashion of your favorite era with our vintage eyeglass frames:

1930s. In the late 1930s, General Douglas MacArthur introduced aviator frames into Air force military tradition. Today this sleek classic has seamlessly transitioned to modern-day fashion, with stars like Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, and Arnold Schwarzenegger leading the trend. Join the force and add these bold, vintage eyeglasses to your wardrobe. Choose from sleek metallic colors, like black, bronze, and silver for a sharp look.

1950s. From Malcolm X and Marilyn Monroe to Samuel L. Jackson and Jennifer Lopez, browline and horn-rimmed frames have been a go-to choice for generations. Make them a part of your signature style. Pick a full- or semi-rimless pair of vintage eyeglass frames with a vibrant tortoiseshell or classic black finish to cap off your everyday look.

1960s. Who doesn’t love wayfarers? Famous stars such as Michael Jackson, David Beckham, and Beyonce are known to wear wayfarers as their red carpet style of choice. Even fashion expert Anna Wintour wears them. Make your mark on this modern trend with our signature eyewear. Go classic with black, acetate frames or stun the paparazzi with a wooden frame in a soft green. Worried you’ll miss out trying on eyewear by shopping for vintage eyeglasses online?
