Free virtual glasses try-on with your photo

Yes, you can try glasses on a photo of your own face for free, with no account, in a phone or laptop browser. A virtual try-on will not replace an optician, but it can help you rule out frames that are clearly too wide or too narrow and compare a few shapes on the same photo before you order. FitMyFace is for adults 18 and over and is not available in Illinois.

Try glasses on your photo — free

What FitMyFace gives you

There is no app to install, no account and no subscription. You scan your face or pick a photo, then flip through real frames from 9 stores, plus sunglasses from 7, drawn at their real size with store links and prices where we can check them. You buy wherever you like. Prices and stock change, so check the store before you buy.

Take a photo that gives a useful result

Take your glasses off for the photo. Face the camera with the device at eye level, about an arm away, in even light. Your camera shows a mirror image; after the scan you can switch the result to "As others see you". A tilted, cropped or heavily filtered picture makes the estimate worse, so scan again if the first result looks off.

How the size estimate works

The colored part of your eye (the iris) is about 11.7 mm wide on most adults, so we use it as a ruler. We measure your eyes and face, not your nose. Sizes are estimates, good for ruling out frames that are clearly too wide or too narrow, so treat them as approximate. Your eye distance (PD) is an estimate, about ±3 mm: for prescription lenses, use the PD from your optician.

If you already own a pair that fits, the three numbers printed inside an arm (for example 52-18-140) tell you the lens width, bridge width and arm length. See what the numbers on glasses mean and how to measure frame width.

What a virtual try-on can and cannot show

• It can show whether a round, square, rectangle, browline or cat-eye shape is one you want to wear, at about the right width, with a price and a store.
• If glasses slide down your nose, tick "Glasses slide down my nose" after the scan: frames with nose pads or a low-bridge fit move to the top. See glasses sliding down your nose.
• It cannot give a prescription, a pupillary distance to use for lenses, or a final fit. An optician confirms those. Check the store's own photos for exact colors.

A virtual try-on is a shopping aid, not an eye exam. The drawing is an approximate preview, not a product photo, and real frames can sit differently on your face.

Where your photo goes

The glasses scan runs on your device. For the optional AI previews, your consent is the one "I agree" on the scan screen, which says your photo is sent to Cloudflare for them, and a switch on the results turns them off. The privacy page has the full detail. FitMyFace is for adults 18 and over.

A simple order to follow

1. Scan or choose one glasses-off photo.
2. If you own a pair that fits, note its numbers.
3. Try two or three shapes at about that width: one that repeats your face shape and one that contrasts with it. The chart is in glasses for your face shape.
4. Compare the same size across shops with compare glasses across stores.
5. Buy from the store you prefer and ask an optician to confirm the fit.

Questions

Is there a free virtual glasses try-on that uses my own photo?

Yes. FitMyFace lets you try frames on a photo of your face in the browser, with no account and no fee. It is for adults 18 and over and is not available in Illinois.

Do I need to create an account or install an app?

No.

Will the frames be drawn at real size?

They are drawn at each frame's listed width, scaled from a measurement of your eyes. That measurement is an estimate, so use it to rule out frames that are clearly too wide or too narrow.

Is this an eye exam?

No. Your optician confirms your prescription, pupillary distance and final fit.

Does my photo leave my phone?

The glasses scan runs on your device. The optional AI previews send a photo to Cloudflare only under the one "I agree" on the scan screen, and a switch on the results turns them off.

Can I try sunglasses the same way?

Yes. FitMyFace lists sunglasses from 7 stores alongside glasses from 9. Sunglasses often run larger, so still check the width: sunglasses by width.
