1 | The Three Key Measurements
| Symbol | What it Measures | Typical Range | Why it Matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| □ Lens Width | Horizontal diameter of one lens | 48–62 mm | Determines how the frame spans your eyes & brow line |
| – Bridge Width | Distance between the two lenses | 14–22 mm | Ensures comfort across the nose and proper lens alignment |
| ⌒ Temple Length | Arm length from hinge to tip | 135–150 mm | Keeps the glasses secure behind the ear without pressure |
Each frame is engraved with these numbers and they can also be found on the product page.
2 | Fit‑at‑a‑Glance Chart
| Total Frame Width* | Lens Width | Fit Category | How It Feels |
|---|---|---|---|
| ≤ 130 mm | ≤ 50 mm | Narrow | Sits neatly inside your temples; ideal for slim faces |
| 131 – 138 mm | 51–54 mm | Medium | Universal “just‑right” fit for most customers |
| ≥ 139 mm | ≥ 55 mm | Wide | Extra breathing room for broad cheekbones or larger heads |
*Total width ≈ (2 × Lens Width) + Bridge Width
