## What is Chairside Fitting?

Chairside Fitting is a fitting assistant for opticians. Point the rear camera at your customer and virtual frames sit on their face in real time, follow head movement and scale to their pupil distance. Measure PD, capture looks, keep a customer record and hand over a PDF summary, all on one iPhone or iPad.

TRY FRAMES ON, LIVE
• Round, rectangle, cat-eye, aviator and browline frames in acetate, metal, tortoise and crystal colourways, drawn on the face as it moves.
• Filter by shape, by fit against the measured face width, or by name.
• A decentration warning when a frame's centres sit far from the customer's PD.

MEASURE
• Calibrate with a standard bank or ID card held on the forehead, or with the customer's current glasses (enter the size printed on the temple, e.g. 52□18-140).
• Far PD with a stated ± tolerance, approximate face width, and suggested front width, eye size and bridge.
• How it works: the app freezes one camera frame, you mark the two ends of the reference, and its known size (85.60 mm for the card, or eye size and bridge for the glasses) gives the scale. Face landmarks locate the pupils; corrections for the reference sitting in front of the eyes and for convergence turn the pupil distance into far PD. The tolerance combines marking, landmark, distance and placement errors.
• Approximate styling measurement, not a prescription or dispensing measurement: verify PD with a pupillometer or PD ruler before ordering lenses.

CUSTOMER RECORDS
• Name, notes, favourite frames, measurement history and captured looks (stills with the frame composited).
• Tap a look to show it full screen to the customer.
• A PDF summary with your store name, the measurements, favourites, notes and looks, shared from the share sheet.

ONLY ON IPHONE DUO
• Open iPhone Duo and hold it toward the customer: they see a live mirror with the frame on the outer display, while you work on the inner display with the unmirrored preview, the catalog and the measurements.
• Closing iPhone Duo pauses the fitting and keeps the customer, frame and measurement for when you open it again.
On other iPhones and iPads the same try-on, measurements and records work on one screen; show the customer their looks full screen or in the PDF.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Chairside Fitting has no in-app purchases, subscriptions, ads or accounts. It collects no data. Customer records and images are stored only on the device, excluded from backups and protected while the device is locked; nothing leaves the device unless you share a PDF.

The app comes with a sample catalog of 11 frames.
