PD# (pupillary distance)
pupillary distance (PD) is the millimeter measurement between the centers of your pupils. ensures your lens optics align with your eyes horizontally. often listed on a prescription as "PD" — sometimes one number (e.g. 63), sometimes two (e.g. 32/31).
how to get it
call your eye doctor. PD is part of your medical record. by law, providers are required to share it on request if they have it on file.
call any optical shop that has made your prescription lenses. they used a PD to make your lenses and are required to share it on request if they have it on file.
visit any optical shop. most costco, walmart, target, and lenscrafters locations will measure your PD in 1–2 minutes — often at no charge.

not sure about the fit? we'll send your frames with non-rx lenses and a return label. ship back to us and we'll make / install your rx lenses. if you decide not to proceed, we refund your order minus a $30 restocking fee.
for progressives, this is also how you'll get your seg height — the vertical position that places your intermediate and reading zones correctly on the lens. without try-on, we use a frame-specific average that fits most wearers. with try-on, you can get more accurate by having a local optical shop measure it for you, or measuring it yourself using the instructions we send.
classic aviator silhouette with a sculpted double bridge. 6-base tajima polarized lens with integrated side shields for peripheral coverage. double-stacked spring hinge on a single axis — the visible mechanics that define the basn5 line. torpedo surface detail accents the temple design across the hinge gap, a signature element carried across every basn5 style. comes with a removable nose-bridge wind plug — for wind protection at high speed or a 70s-throwback silhouette shift.
fort point is the brick fortification that sits directly beneath the golden gate bridge — built in 1861, standing at the edge of the bay where the current runs hardest and the wind doesn't stop. it was designed to endure forces that never let up, and it has.
the frame borrows that logic. the brow bar's cutout architecture gives fort point a silhouette unlike anything else in the line — structural, visible, immediately identifiable. integrated side shields handle wind and light from the sides. it's the frame that works on the water, on the course, in the city, on a trail, and at a gathering. the proportions fit the widest range of faces in the collection. wherever you put fort point, it holds.
