Customer service didn't get back to me about measurements via the website, but they did respond right away over email and then were very attentive on helping with the fit. They gave me the honest assessment that a Japanese Chin will be particularly hard to fit, and that was true. It took trying a handful of sizes to get the right fit.
My dog ended up with the new style short snout mini. The mini will not come off no matter what he tries (and he has tried many things). Notably, you need the right size for a Japanese Chin, because my dog could easily get out of the next size up.
I'm glad the optivisor worked because we needed his eye to heal from surgery for an indolent ulcer, and he could get out of any other visor brand we tried (I bought at least a dozen). In a cone he could smash his face to the side to get at his eye, or lunge at the corner of pillows. Nothing he tries allows him to scratch or rub his eye in the optivisor.
I was hoping the optivisor could also prevent my dog from licking his eye ball constantly. The optivisor discourages it, but unfortunately, he can still get his tongue up in the mask. Perhaps if I cut and adjusted it more, we could get a closer fit. I did try and ended up cutting the visor too high, making me need to order a new one. That's entirely my fault though.
The vets were worried my dog could not heal his ulcer because of his eye licking, but I guess the optivisor discouraged it sufficiently enough that the ulcer did heal, which was a relief and helped prevent a full eye removal for now. If he has future eye injuries and surgeries to heal from, we will definitely use this visor again.
Finally, an important note: you need someone with dexterous and gentle hands to get this on and off a short snout dog without hurting the dog. A male family member who has very large and somewhat clumsy hands could not do it.

Best purchase we have made by far. Obi unfortunately found himself with an injured eye to the point he almost lost it. As a short snout dog traditional cones just dont work well to protect his eyes. This is the best protection and fits him perfectly. He loves the freedom it gives. He can still play with his toys, eat/drink normally, and sleeps perfectly with it on. Our vet was thrilled with it and it truly saved his eye. It is now a staple for outside wear since he is at higher risk of having a repeat injury. The pictures and measurements really made this process so simple, and we got just what we needed in the right size. Which is difficult for us as he is odd shaped and doesn't fit typical weight or size standards for his breed.

Because we live in Canada it did take some time to receive the mask. But the mask is great fit well easy to apply. Highly recommend. Thank you.
