Abstract: The proposed innovation provides methods and systems for measuring the interpupillary distance. The proposed innovation provides a fitting pad (102) having two detection points (104 and 106). The fitting pad is placed on the forehead of the user and an image is captured. The image is uploaded and pupil distance calculator software locates the fitting detection points and calculates the distance in pixels of the left and right X, Y coordinates. The software creates an image scale by dividing the pixel counts between the detection points. The software automatically locates the X, Y coordinates between the center of the left and right pupils and calculates the distance in pixels. The resulting pixel distance divided by the image scale provides the interpupillary distance in millimeter. In embodiments, segment height is calculated based upon an image imported by the user and the combined scaled images of the user and the frame.

Abstract: A system and method for obtaining a sight screening as well as previous and current optical prescriptions (specifications) for virtual try-on and purchase of glasses and contact lenses operated by one's self, through a voice-activated response self-refraction, or a technician/optician assisted refraction, at a convenient location or possibly several different customer diagnostic, electronic store locations where digital instruments interface and may transfer either directly back to the customer, or to a remote, interactive audio-video diagnosing and assisting, consulting eye doctor (ophthalmologist or optometrist) who interprets the digital data, diagnoses, consults, delivers health care, and authorizes the specifications, whereby the store technician/optician gathers data for purchase and electronically sends the data to a lens lab for fabrication and delivery of glasses or contact lenses to the store or directly to the customer; and, the customer can purchase selected glasses or contact lenses from any inte
