January 04, 2024Why do we need a varifocal photograph from you? This photograph allows us to take precise measurements of both your PD (Pupillary Distance) and height. PD is the distance between the centres of your pupils and plays a crucial role in the process of ordering varifocals (progressive lenses). Ensuring that the optical centre of the lens aligns precisely with your PD results in the best possible vision correction. In addition to obtaining your PD, we also consider your height measurements from the picture, as they are equally crucial in ensuring that your varifocals are tailored specifically to you. Knowing your precise measurements for the progressive lens is essential for optimal performance and visual comfort.
