How to Buy Prescription Reading Glasses Online

Ordering prescription reading glasses online is convenient and often far cheaper than a brick-and-mortar shop. But a few details matter. Here's exactly what you need before you order.

What You'll Need

  • Your prescription: including sphere (SPH) values for each eye, and your pupillary distance (PD).
  • Your PD measurement: ask your optometrist, or measure it at home with a millimeter ruler.
  • Your frame size: check the width against a pair that already fits well.

Step-by-Step

  1. Get an up-to-date prescription from an eye exam (recommended every 1–2 years).
  2. Note your PD in millimeters — this is essential for lens centering.
  3. Choose a frame that suits your face shape and daily needs.
  4. Enter your prescription values exactly as written.
  5. Double-check your order before submitting.
