Choosing The Right Glasses

Getting eyeglasses means choosing between all of the frames that are available from your eye care center. If you are due for a new pair of glasses, you need to see an eye doctor to get your latest prescription. You can then choose your frames. If you are considering eyeglasses in the Friendswood or Houston areas, contact our team to make an appointment at Exquisite Eye Care.

Frame Colors

Frames today come in virtually every color. Some are bright, some are dark and some are speckled with different colors. Before you choose the right color for your eyeglasses, make sure that you know which colors will go well with your coloring. Hold a pair of frames up to your hair as well as to your skin to see how the frames work with both. This method will keep you from wearing a color that will clash with your coloring.

Frame Shapes

Eyeglass frames come in a number of basic shapes that can change the way your face looks. The goal with picking a frame is to choose one that goes well with the shape of your face and makes it look more oval. This ideal face shape looks harmonious, so it's a good goal to have your face perceived as an oval.

If your face is square or rectangular, you should choose a rounder shape to make your face look less angular. If your face is very round, a square frame may help it look less round. If you find that a shape doesn't help your face look more ovular, you can rule out that shape, and hopefully narrow down the best shape for your face.
