Here's a simple guide on how to read your prescription:
- OD and OS: These abbreviations stand for "oculus dexter" (right eye) and "oculus sinister" (left eye). The information for each eye will be listed separately.
- Sphere (SPH): This indicates the lens power needed to correct nearsightedness (-) or farsightedness (+). A minus sign indicates nearsightedness, and a plus sign indicates farsightedness.
- Cylinder (CYL): This represents the degree of astigmatism correction needed, if any.
- Axis: This number defines the orientation of the cylindrical power for astigmatism correction.
- Add: This is an additional correction for presbyopia or reading glasses. It's the added magnifying power applied to the bottom part of multifocal lenses.
- Pupillary Distance (PD): This is the distance between the centers of your pupils, crucial for accurate lens placement.
Example:
OD: -1.25 -0.50 x 180
OS: -1.50 -0.75 x 175
Add: +2.00
PD: 64 (Right) / 62 (Left)
In this example:
- The right eye has a sphere power of -1.25, a cylinder power of -0.50 at an axis of 180 degrees.
- The left eye has a sphere power of -1.50, a cylinder power of -0.75 at an axis of 175 degrees.
- An additional power of +2.00 is added for reading.
- The pupillary distance is 64 for the right eye and 62 for the left eye.
Let customers speak for us
from 3749 reviewsReceived replacement lens for my Prada sunglasses, they were delivered fast and fit perfectly. Thank you!
My experience was fantastic, the product fit perfectly and was as descibed, the shiipping was timely and overall everything went smoothly. The main reason my experiiece was so good was all thanks to Ashley in customer service. I reached out to her after you had a price increase on Ebay which is where i found the lenses originally. She directed me to your website,helped me out on pricing and provided great communication and customer service from before purchasing to recieving my item. Thanks again and especially to Ashley,because without her i would have just used another vendor.Best Regards, Steve
So easy. They actually sent the wrong color lenses at first, but when I emailed, they responded immediately! I sent a picture of the lenses, they replied, “ okay, new ones are on the way”. Got to keep the mistake as a potential replacement in case of damage.
Perfect fit. Perfect color. Customer service like it used to be. I put these shades on and in my mind I’m eighteen again.
Thank you so much SeekOptics, you guys are the real deal!
I have been looking for replacement lenses for this frame for some time and finally found these! The cut is pretty much the same as OEM, and the clarity of the lens (I got volcanic black) is excellent.
I have experience with other popular brands and these seem to be comparable.
I’ve had 3 pair of sunglasses with scratched or prescription lenses. They were buried in the back of a cabinet called the “Graveyard”
While online I had the good fortune to browse the Seek Optics web site. I ordered new lenses for each and they arrived shortly after.
Following their instructions (much easier than expected) I had the old ones out and the new ones in!
Easy Peasy!
Way to go Seek Team!
Love it

I sent another pair of designer glasses to another company. They disappeared with my deposit. I was really concerned this time sending another pair away The communication immediately removed any concern I had. The delivery was quick and the quality was excellent. I couldn’t be happier. This is a great company!!!
I love my thin optics! They are so handy when I don’t feel like wearing my prescription glasses!! 🤓
Customer service was good!
Ordered the wrong lense so I reached out to customer service and Ashley was able to resolve the issue immediately. As for the lense, it's as described but a tend difficult to install. A little forcing helps.
They replaced due to loss with no questions
