眼鏡・サングラスの購入前にサイズ確認をお忘れなく(サイズ表記の見方)

Hello,

Brand eyewear online store

This is METRONOME Tokyo Online.

This time we'll talk about eyeglass sizes.

Just like with clothes, glasses and sunglasses should be chosen to fit you.

Choosing the size will affect the fit.

Glasses size is usually described by three main factors:

1. Lens Width :

This is the measurement of the width of each lens.

Usually expressed in millimeters, e.g. 52mm

2. Bridge Width :

The area between the two lenses

This is the width above the nose.

This is also expressed in millimeters, e.g. 18mm

3. Temple Length :

This is the length from the lens of the glasses to the part that goes over your ear.

It is displayed in millimeters.

These figures are

It is often engraved on the inside of the glasses .

For example, "52-18-140"

It will be displayed as "52◻︎18-140" or similar.

Below are the values for each:

Here's how it affects you:

The lens width affects the field of view.

If the lens is too wide

It may grow too large on the face,

If it's too narrow, your field of view may feel limited.

The bridge width is the width at which the glasses sit on the nose.

It depends on how well it fits.

If the bridge is too wide, the glasses will easily slip down.

If it's too narrow, you may feel pressured.

Temple length affects how comfortable your glasses are to wear.

If it is too long, the part that rests on the ears will feel oppressive,

If it's too short, it may get caught on your ears.

These sizes will be helpful when choosing glasses.

Especially if you're buying online

We recommend checking before purchasing.

If this is your first time buying glasses,

By having a professional measure you at an eyeglass store,

You can get a more accurate fit.
