How to Read Prescription

How Do I Read My Prescription?

There are a few standard terms used by opticians to indicate the prescription reading. Don’t be scared of the jargon as we have a quick guide to all the tricky terms:

• OD = right eye
• OS = left eye
• SPH = sphere or power; a minus sign (–) means that you are nearsighted, while a plus sign (+) means you are farsighted
• CYL = cylinder; the amount of astigmatism
• ADD = the added magnifying power applied to the bottom part of multifocal lenses
• PD = pupillary distance (the distance in between your pupils in millimeters).

Can I Use My Contact Lens Prescription When Ordering Glasses?

Yes, you can! Just remember to keep the prescription from your latest eye check ready and make sure you insert your PD (pupillary distance) upon ordering (which you don’t normally need to when you buy contact lenses).
