Due to the pandemic, the world has shifted to a remote life. Checking up on your eye sight and buying the right glasses might seem hard to do from home. Luckily, there are two easy ways to measure your PD (Pupillary Distance) remotely and try on glasses online.
Measure your PD
Step 1 – Hold a millimetre ruler up to the bridge of your nose.
Step 2 – Have a friend stand about an arm’s length away from you.
Step 3 – Close your right eye and ensure the ruler’s zero is aligned with your left pupil by asking a friend.
Step 4 – Keeping the pupillary distance ruler still and look straight ahead, close your left eye and open your right eye.
Step 5 – Have your friend read the number that aligns with the centre of your right pupil. This number is your pupillary distance.
Step 6 – Repeat the process to ensure the most accurate result.
