Step 1
Make sure glasses are the right width. If glasses aren't the right width, they'll put uncomfortable pressure on your temples. When trying on glasses, make sure the glasses don't apply too much pressure to your temples.
-
Step 2
Make sure the glasses are the right length. Your glasses should fit comfortably and extend past your ear; without adding any extra pressure on your head. You can have the length customized to ensure maximum comfort.
-
Step 3
Check the glasses' nose piece. When choosing glasses, make sure the nose pad is comfortable. The nose pad should be soft, and not cause any extra pressure on your nose. If the glasses have an adjustable nose pad, adjust it so it doesn't pitch the bridge of your nose.

Step 4
Keep the glasses on for several minutes. Buying glasses is like walking in a pair of shoes; you need to test them out to ensure proper fit. Reach down and touch your toes, bend up high; determine how well the glasses stay on your face (and the comfort level).

Step 5
Consider spring hinges. Glasses made with spring hinges prevent stretching in your eyeglasses. This means after wear and tear, your glasses should still remain comfortable.
