Estimating your IPD in a mirror
You can estimate your IPD with a ruler and mirror.
This method requires a millimeter ruler.
1. Stand directly in front of a mirror, and then hold the ruler up to your eyes. Make sure that
the ruler is level. If you're using a flexible ruler, make sure not to bend it.

2. Align the zero mark with the center of your pupil. You may need to close your other eye to
get a clear measure.

3. Check the millimeter mark on the other eye. You may need to close the first eye to get a
clear measure.

4. Make a note of your IPD measurement. You may want to recheck several times to make
sure your reading is accurate.
You can also ask a friend to help you measure instead of using a mirror. Make sure you're
looking straight ahead while they measure.
