Shane,
A round lens will be about 5.2mm for the 1.60 index and about 4.6mm for 1.70,
assuming a 1.5mm center thickness. Your frame is rectangular, increasing the
thickness .5mm to 1.00mm, more if there are very sharp corners, or has a shape
that requires an unusually long diagonal length.
Hope this helps,
