How To Know What Eyeglass Frames Suit You?

Selecting the right eyeglass frames can significantly impact your appearance and overall satisfaction with your vision correction. By considering your face shape, skin tone, and lifestyle, you can find frames that complement your unique style and enhance your features.

Analyze Your Face Shape

•           Oval: Oval faces can usually pull off most frame shapes.

•           Round: Rounded frames can soften angular features.

•           Square: Angular frames, such as rectangular or aviator styles, can balance strong jawlines.

•           Heart: Cat-eye or browline frames can accentuate high cheekbones and balance a wider forehead.

•           Diamond: Similar to heart-shaped faces, diamond-shaped faces benefit from angular frames.

Consider Frame Size and Shape

•           Smaller faces: Opt for smaller, more delicate frames to avoid overwhelming your features.

•           Larger faces: Larger frames can add balance and proportion to wider faces.

•           Match frame shape to face shape: Consider the overall shape of your face when selecting frame shapes.

Frame Color and Contrast

•           Complementary colors: Choose frame colors that contrast with your skin tone and eye color to make them stand out.

•           Warm skin tones: Consider gold or bronze frames.

•           Cool skin tones: Silver or platinum frames can look flattering.

•           Vibrant colors: Bold frame colors can add a touch of personality and draw attention to your face.

Focus on Your Best Features

•           Accentuate your eyes: Cat-eye or browline frames can highlight your eyes.

•           Balance your features: Choose frames that complement your facial proportions and balance any asymmetry.

Lifestyle Considerations

•           Durability: If you're an active person, select frames that are durable and comfortable.

•           Blue light protection: If you spend significant time in front of screens, consider frames with blue light-blocking lenses to reduce eye strain.
