Finding the Right Pair of Glasses Frames for You

When it comes to eyeglasses and sunglasses, it’s all in the details. Three important considerations when it comes to comfort: Look for eyewear that is well constructed, produced using quality materials, and the weight of the frame is nicely balanced. You will pay a bit more for quality, but the eyewear will last longer and be much more enjoyable to wear.

Think outside the box when it comes to color. Selecting the right color hue adds versatility and style to your wardrobe. Don’t get stuck in a rut of wearing black or brown frames – try a dark red, orange, gray or blue to complement any outfit. Look for rich color tones that add depth to the frame. A word of caution, companies producing cheaper, lower quality frames can’t replicate the color hues or color combinations found in higher quality frames. Color is essential to the overall look of the frame, and an investment worth making as you build your eyewear wardrobe.

Consider exploring material options and resist the temptation to wear the same type of frame you’ve always worn. Acetate has been, and continues to be, a dominant force in eyewear. However, advancements in manufacturing techniques now make it possible to produce ultra thin, lightweight acetate frames.

In addition, combinations of acetate and metal provide the look of an acetate frame with the lighter weight comfort of a metal frame. Metal frames are making a come back. Gone, however, are the traditional metal options. Metal frames are bringing life to electrifying colors and exquisite two-tone color combinations - making metal frames a serious consideration for eyewear buyers. The demand for color is also found in today’s drill mount (totally rimless frames) selection. Today’s consumer can customize their drill mount eyewear – choosing from an array of beautiful colors, temple styles and lens shapes that add style and elegance to the minimalistic look.
