There are two basic components to eyeglasses and sunglasses, the frame and the lens. You can order glasses from us by using the buymeglasses.com website. We supply a lot of information for each step, so you will have all the information and guidance you need to select the perfect eyeglass frames and eyeglass lenses for you. If you find a problem while processing your order then we are always available to answer questions on our email contact@buymeglasses.com.
The first step in buying glasses online is to choose the frame style that appeals to you. We have different types of materials in frames like plastic, metal etc. so you can choose what you prefer? What design (full frame, half frame, or rimless frame) do you prefer? What shape do you prefer (oval, rectangular, round, cat eye, aviator)? And then, what colour do you prefer? These are some basic questions, which you would find in the options on our home page. We offer many different styles of frames including rimless and semi-rimless. All our frames are high quality, stylish and fashionable.
After selecting your choice of frame you need to add the lens to it and then check it out. We offer a choice of Single Vision Distance, Single Vision Reading, Bifocal or Progressive lenses. All lenses can also be upgraded into sunglasses. At each point, you can read about lenses, evaluate the choices and prices of each lens option, and then choose for yourself. You’ll be able to choose which colour and size you'd like for each frame selected. If you've selected frames & lenses, you'll then also choose which lenses you'd like on the 'lens options' page (where you'll find an explanation of each lens option).
Once you have chosen your frame and lens then click "Add to Cart" next to the product you wish to purchase.

The sphere specifies the strength of lens required to correct your focus - a plus sphere to correct long-sightedness (hyperopia - difficulty focusing on close objects) and a minus to correct short sightedness (myopia - difficulty focusing on distant objects.)
The cylinder and axis compensate for astigmatism. Astigmatism is where the eye is shaped slightly like a rugby ball not a perfect sphere like a football. This just means the eye has difficulty focusing at certain angles. The Add, short for Reading Addition, is the additional correction required for reading, this could be used to make either reading glasses or bifocal glasses.
The PD, or Pupilliary Distance, is the distance in millimetres between the centre of your pupils; this isn't a major factor at lower prescriptions unless you have special features. For higher prescriptions it is recommended because it enables us to make your spectacles as effective as possible.
You will sometimes see two values, one PD at distance and one PD for near vision (reading.)
If you do just put the details in the comments section of your prescription. We recommend that you contact your optician to get your PD reading, if not you can measure it yourself as below
This measurement is necessary to ensure the correct positioning of your lenses within the frame you have chosen. Allow a friend to measure the distance from the centre of the pupil (black dot) in one eye to the centre of the pupil in the other eye.
To measure your PD:
