A member asked:
Please tell me, are eyeglasses one-size-fits-all?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No!: No they are not! arms come in different sizes and your pupillary distance is different for everyone.

No: Head sizes vary, the distance to the ears vary, nose bridges vary and these are different in men women and children. So one size fits all means many will not fit well.
