How to Buy Glasses Online Without an In-Store Visit
The convenience of online shopping has extended to eyewear, making it easier than ever to purchase glasses online from the comfort of your home. However, buying glasses without trying them on can seem tricky. Don’t worry! This guide will walk you through everything you need to know—measuring your PD, selecting the perfect frames, ensuring the best fit, and even getting expert advice through Al-Aziz Optical’s style consultation service.
Why Buy Glasses Online?
Online shopping offers numerous advantages:
Variety: Online glasses stores offer a wider range of styles, colors, and brands than physical stores.
Convenience: No need to visit multiple shops. You can browse, compare, and purchase glasses online at your leisure.
Affordable Prices: Many online platforms offer competitive pricing and exclusive discounts.
At Al-Aziz Optical, we offer a curated collection of premium eyeglasses for both men and women, making it easier for you to find exactly what you’re looking for.
Step 1: Measure Your Pupillary Distance (PD)
Your Pupillary Distance (PD) is the distance (in millimeters) between the centers of your pupils. This measurement ensures that your lenses are correctly aligned with your eyes, which is crucial for clear vision.
How to Measure Your PD:
Stand in front of a mirror with a ruler and place it across the bridge of your nose.
Look straight ahead and measure the distance between the centers of your pupils.
Repeat the process a couple of times to ensure accuracy.
Alternatively, you can visit our detailed guide on Measuring Your PD for more instructions.
Step 2: Choose the Right Frames for Your Face Shape
Not every frame suits every face shape. Here’s how to choose frames that complement your features:
Round Face: Look for angular frames like rectangular or square shapes to add definition.
Square Face: Choose round or oval frames to soften sharp angles.
Heart-Shaped Face: Opt for frames that are wider at the bottom, like aviators, to balance a broad forehead.
Oval Face: You’re in luck! Almost any frame shape works well for you.

Step 3: Ensure a Comfortable Fit
A well-fitting frame isn’t just about looks—it’s about comfort, too. Here’s what to check:
Frame Width: The frame should align well with the width of your face. Too wide or too narrow can affect both comfort and appearance.
Bridge Fit: The bridge of the frame should rest comfortably on your nose without pinching.
Temple Length: The arms of the glasses should fit snugly over your ears without pressing too hard or sliding down.
If you already have a pair of glasses that fit well, note down its measurements (usually printed on the inside of the temple) and use them as a reference when buying new ones.
Step 4: Get Expert Advice with Our Style Consultation
Choosing the perfect pair of glasses can be overwhelming, especially when buying online. That’s why we offer a Style Consultation service to help you make the right choice.
Our experts are available via WhatsApp text and video calls to guide you in selecting the best frames for your face shape, lifestyle, and preferences. Whether you’re looking for bold, trendy designs or something more classic, we’ll ensure you find the perfect fit—without stepping out of your home!
Step 5: Choose the Right Lenses
When purchasing glasses online, selecting the right lenses is just as important as choosing the right frames. Depending on your needs, you might opt for:
-
Single Vision Lenses: Ideal for correcting nearsightedness or farsightedness.
-
Progressive Lenses: Great for people who need both distance and reading correction in one pair.
-
Blue Light Blocking Lenses: Perfect if you spend a lot of time in front of screens.
-
Photochromic Lenses: Lenses that darken in sunlight and clear indoors.

Add your selected glasses to the cart.
Enter your prescription details carefully. Ensure accuracy to avoid any issues.
Double-check your PD measurement.
Complete the checkout process, and you’re done!
