The Only Virtual Try-On (VTO)Built for Kids

Choose with confidence using a virtual try-on built for kids’ faces, informed by real children’s face measurements and pediatric expertise.

Built for Kids’
Faces 

Kids’ faces and proportions are different from adults. Dilli Dalli VTO is the only virtual try-on developed for kids. We built it with years of experience, AI and machine learning, and measurements from 3,000+ children’s face shapes.

Experts in Children’s Eyewear

We’re experts in children’s glasses, so we made a VTO for kids’ faces. As a leading maker of kids’ frames with pediatric expertise, it was important to us to create the most accurate try-on experience. So, we invested in building our own that is accurate to the MM by measuring over 400 points on the face!

Easy, Accurate PD Measurement 

When it comes to children and their eyesight, getting the right fit is super important. Our VTO makes measuring pupil distance easy—plus it’s always learning using AI technology! No cards to hold up. Choose from three methods: enter PD manually, upload a photo, or enter your child’s birthday.

FAQs

Find answers to your questions about our virtual try-on and how it works.

Our virtual try-on uses advanced AI technology to overlay glasses on your child's face in real time. It starts by determining your child’s PD. With an accurate PD measurement, the virtual try-on overlays the frame over your little one’s face so you can see how it looks in real time. It's an easy and fun way to virtually try on different styles and find a true-to-life fit!

Children’s faces are still growing and that makes for plenty of differences. One reason for that is that little ones grow at different rates! That means even kids of the same age might be at different stages of growth. Common features of children’s faces include a shallow nose bridge, features positioned closer together, and proportions that don’t match adult faces. For that reason, it’s important that a virtual try-on made for kids takes these differences into account.

PD is the millimeter distance between the centers of the pupils. In virtual try-ons, PD helps with accurately calibrating the frame’s scale on a child’s face. PD also helps center lenses for clear, comfortable vision.

Yes, ours is the only virtual try-on that provides a reliable estimate for kids’ faces. Our virtual try-on technology is specially developed for fitting kids' faces because kids’ faces are different from adults’ faces. There are three different ways it determines PD to ensure an accurate virtual try-on: 1) for the most accurate result enter your child’s PD manually if you know it, 2) for the next most accurate result add your child’s photo, 3) you can also enter your little one’s birthday—this is based on average sizes and might be less accurate since children grow at different rates. Your eyecare provider will confirm final measurements and make any needed adjustments in store.

We take privacy seriously. We do not collect, store, or sell personal data from children using the virtual try-on. Images are used only to power the try-on experience and are not retained.

Yes. Use any modern device with a camera—phone, tablet, or computer. Prefer in-office? Your eyecare provider can help you try it in person.

We believe working with your eyecare provider is very important to ensuring your child gets the best possible care and right fit for his or her glasses. Visit our Eyecare Provider Locator to connect with a nearby authorized Dilli Dalli location. Call ahead of your visit to make an appointment. After you call to make an appointment, mention that you selected a frame(s) using Dilli Dalli Virtual Try-On and that you would like to try it on in person during your appointment. Tell them the frame you like and see if they have it in stock for you to try on or ask if they will order it for you. Some eyecare providers have a policy stating that there may be a small shipping fee if a frame is not in stock and must be ordered from Dilli Dalli.

Currently we do no sell Dilli Dalli frames online. We currently only sell accessories. You can purchase Dilli Dalli eyewear and accessories through your local eyecare provider.
