How to Choose Glass Frames
Choosing the right glass frames for your face shape can be a challenge. Your glass frames should be versatile, stylish, and flattering. They should also suit your personality, whether its conservative and classic or trendy and playful. Depending upon your prescription, certain styles may not be a good choice due to lens strength and shape. The right glasses will accent your face and make you look your best, while still letting you see the world around you. Does this Spark an idea?

How to Choose Glass Frames
-
1
Look carefully at your face shape. Choose angular glass frames for a round face, broad frames for a narrow one, and gently curved frames for a more angular face shape.
-
2
Consider the size of your face. Opt for frames that are in proportion with your face, avoiding those that are too small or too large. Be sure that your eyes are centered in the lens of your glass frames.

Select colors that work with your skin tone and eye color. Flatter a warm complexion with gold, bronze, amber browns, or bolder shades of coral, teal, fire engine red or even lime green. Try glasses in shades blue, blue gray, rose, burgundy, plum or silver tones for a cooler complexion.

Take a friend along when shopping for glass frames, especially if you do not own contact lenses and have very poor vision. Choose someone with taste similar to your own, or who at least likes and appreciates your sense of personal style.

Shop at a good optical shop for the assistance you need when choosing eyeglass frames. Take advantage of the services of a trained optician to help visually shorten a long nose, widen a narrow face, or emphasize a beautiful feature.
