3 | How to Measure Yourself at Home
-
Use a favourite pair
– Locate the three‑number code printed inside the arm (e.g., “53 □ 18 145”).
– Compare each value with the measurements on our product page.
-
Card Test (30 sec.)
– Stand before a mirror, hold a standard credit card vertically under one eye.
– Edge aligns with outer eye corner → Medium fit
– Card ends before eye corner → Narrow fit
– Card extends past eye corner → Wide fit
-
Precision Method
– Place a ruler across your face, temple to temple.
– Note the millimetres and match to the chart above.
