Find your size

Buying glasses online shouldn’t be a gamble. This guide helps you find your Himalayan size in two minutes — using a pair you already own.

In a hurry? Find your lens, frame and size in three quick questions.

What do the numbers mean?

Every Himalayan frame carries two measurements, for example 56 – 15. These are millimetres, and they describe the frame itself:

NumberWhat it means
56Lens width — the width of one lens at its widest point
15Bridge width — the gap between the lenses, where the frame rests on your nose

Together they set how wide the frame sits on your face. Each model comes in two sizes — the exact millimetres are shown on every product page. As a guide, our signature series runs:

SizeMeasurementSuited to
Medium56 – 15Narrow to average faces
Large58 – 15Average to broader faces

The easiest way

Take a pair of glasses or sunglasses you already own that fit you well. Look on the inside of one arm (the part that sits over your ear) — you’ll usually find numbers printed there, such as 54□18 or 52-19-140.

The first number is your lens width. Compare it with ours:

• Around 54–56 → choose Medium
• Around 57–59 → choose Large

No glasses to measure?

Measure the distance between your temples (the widest points on the sides of your face, roughly level with your eyes) with a tape measure.

  1. Hold a tape measure horizontally across your face, temple to temple.
  2. Note the distance in millimetres.
  3. Under 130 mmMedium fits best. Over 135 mm → choose Large. In between, either works — Medium for a snugger fit, Large for a bolder look.

Still not sure?
