EYEWEAR SELECTION ACCORDING TO FACE SHAPE

The thinness or thickness of the frame lines changes both the function and the aesthetics of the eyeglass. Thin metal eyeglasses and thick plastic eyeglasses frame that eyewear are produced same shape look different. Thin metal glasses will be less noticeable and thicker plastic frames will be more noticeable.

Sometimes thick plastic frames may also be preferred to take advantage of the flawless feature of the spectacle frame. Cellulose acetate frames may be less noticeable as they distribute the weight over the nose and sides. Weight on metal frames reduces the comfort of the weight because it concentrates on two plaques. Small size plaques slide over the nose with sweating. On very cold days, when the metal stalks of the frame touch the skin, a feeling of coldness occurs. In plastic frames, this negativity is less.

Round Face: The frame of the glasses should show the human face longer and thinner. In general terms, frame should be searched for equally or slightly wider than the widest part of the face. High  frames give a longer appearance effect. The human face seems to be long if the top frame of the eyewear is thick.
