Size Guide

Frame Size Guide: How To Measure Your Eyeglasses

Lens width Lens width

The first number— the lens size — represents the horizontal width of the lenses. Generally, the eye size of most eyeglass frames ranges from 40 mm to 62 mm.

The second number — the bridge size — is the distance between the lenses. In other words, it's the size of the "bridge" of the frame that rests on your nose. In most cases, the bridge size of eyeglass frames ranges from 14 mm to 24 mm.

The third number — the temple length — is the length of the "stems" of the frame, measured from the frame hinge to the back tip of the temple. Temple lengths generally range from 120 mm to 150 mm.

Often a small square (rather than a dash) will separate the eye size and the bridge size on the frame.

About Maui Jim

Maui Jim

Maui Jim traces its humble beginnings to the sun-drenched beaches of Lahaina, Maui, in the 1980s. Founded by a local fisherman, the company initially focused on selling polarized sunglasses to protect beachgoers from the intense Hawaiian sun's glare and harmful UV rays. The brand's breakthrough came with the development of its patented PolarizedPlus2® lens technology, which effectively eliminated glare while providing 100% UV protection. This innovation quickly garnered attention, and Maui Jim's reputation spread through enthusiastic word-of-mouth recommendations. As the brand's reputation grew, so did its ambitions.


In 1991, Walter Hester, a boat captain with a keen eye for opportunity, saw the potential in these miracle specs. He purchased the company, ready to navigate Maui Jim into uncharted waters of global success. Under his steady hand, the brand sailed from its beachfront beginnings to international shores, never losing sight of its island roots. Maui Jim's journey wasn't always smooth sailing. The eyewear market was a sea of fierce competition, but the brand's commitment to innovation kept it afloat. In 2018, they expanded their horizon beyond sunglasses, diving into the world of prescription eyewear. This bold move opened new vistas, with state-of-the-art labs popping up across the US and Europe, crafting lenses as unique as the eyes they served. Maui Jim's vision extended beyond its own shores.

Today, Maui Jim offers over 125 styles of sunglasses, each pair a testament to the brand's journey from beach shack to boardroom. Available in over 100 countries, these aren't just accessories; they're windows to a clearer, more vibrant world.
