Does Photta work with Shopify 2.0 eyewear themes?

Yes — every Shopify 2.0 theme is supported. The widget renders into a target div in your product template or floats automatically. Works with Dawn, Studio, and any custom eyewear or lifestyle theme.

Will the widget slow down my Shopify eyewear store?

No. The SDK is under 5 KB, loads with the defer attribute, and the try-on UI only loads on click. Lighthouse scores remain unchanged across all Shopify themes we have tested.

Does the AI know which frames suit which face shape on Shopify?

Yes. Photta detects the shopper's face shape (round, oval, square, heart, oblong) and can surface a recommended-for-your-face-shape filter. Many Shopify eyewear brands also use it to guide shoppers toward best-fit collections.

How accurate is frame fit width on my Shopify product pages?

Photta renders frames at their actual width relative to the shopper's face. A 51mm frame on a narrow face looks correctly different from the same frame on a wider face — shoppers make informed decisions before checkout.

Does it work for prescription frames on Shopify?

Yes. Photta renders the frame style accurately. For prescription confirmation (PD, Rx values), configure Photta to flow into your existing Shopify prescription form post-try-on.

Does Photta work with Shopify Markets for international eyewear sales?

Yes. All 29 supported languages auto-detect across every regional Shopify Markets storefront. Global sunglasses and optical brands run the same try-on widget across every country-specific domain.

Why Shopify eyewear stores need virtual try-on

Online eyewear has a structural problem: shoppers cannot tell if frames will work on their face shape from a flat product photo. Expensive home-try-on logistics solved it for big brands. Photta delivers the same confidence boost inside your Shopify store — no shipping, no returns from pure styling doubt.
