About this frame
In Forest, the LAPIMA Penelope is a pair of cat-eye eyeglasses marked 52–20–145, for a 52mm lens, a 20mm bridge and 145mm temples. Add the eye twice and the bridge once and it is about 124mm across the front, a middle width. Acetate softens with gentle heat, so an optician can adjust the Penelope's temples and bridge to fit. At 39mm tall, the Penelope's lens is deep enough for most progressive designs, subject to the optician's measurements.
Eye is the width of one lens, bridge is the gap between them, and temple is the length of the arm — all in millimetres. Your own frames carry the same three numbers, usually printed inside the left arm.
