Abstract: A device for measuring pupillary distance can include a processor for processing an electronic image, such as a selfie. The processor can be configured to determine an iris width of one or both of the eyes. The pupillary distance between the eyes can be determined based, at least in part, on the iris width.

Abstract: A dual-camera apparatus derives dimensional measurements of an object. The apparatus comprises a pair of digital cameras each comprising a lens and capable of producing an image of the object. A ratio of known distance units to pixels is established for the apparatus and applied to images generated by each of the digital cameras. The lenses are spaced apart at a first known distance. In operation, the first known distance and the established ratio provide a trigonometric basis for ascertaining distances between at least two features on the object. A calibration template can be used to establish the ratio of known distance units to pixels. The object can be a human subject, and the at least two features can be associated with the human subject's eyes, the human subject's feet, and/or other human body parts. The disclosure also relates to a method in aiding in lens selection.

Abstract: A system and an apparatus for an employer to provide safety prescription eyewear to employees is described. The steps of the preferred embodiment comprise providing a kiosk at or near a place of employment, allowing employees to access the kiosk virtually to try on various models of frames and to submit prescription information, and causing the prescription safety eyewear to be manufactured and shipped. Employee benefits are handled at the kiosk as are all options available relating to, for examples, the selected frame, the prescription lenses, and the method of shipping. Payments in excess of the benefit are accounted for by payment at the kiosk or by payroll deduction.
