Size And Fit Guide to know your face

Here is a Size and Fit Guide to help determine your face shape and find the right eyewear. The image illustrates different face shapes, along with measuring tips and recommended frame styles for each face type.

1). Using Size Of Your Current Frames: If you have a pair of glasses that fit well, you can use their measurements to guide your next purchase. Here’s how to make the most of your current frames to find a perfect match:

2). Using A Ruler Using a ruler when fitting eyeglass frames is essential to ensure a proper fit and comfort for the wearer. Here’s how to effectively use a ruler in the process:

Steps to Measure Eyeglass Frames with a Ruler

1. Gather Materials:
   • A flexible ruler or measuring tape (preferably in millimeters).
   • A flat surface to lay the frames on.
   • A notepad or app to record measurements.
2. Measure Frame Width:
   • Place the ruler across the front of the frame.
   • Measure the total width of the frame from temple to temple. This is usually referred to as the “frame width.”
3. Measure Lens Width:
   • Measure the width of one lens at its widest point. This is important for understanding how much of the lens will fit into the frame.
4. Measure Bridge Width:
   • Measure the distance between the two lenses at the bridge (the part of the frame that sits on your nose). This is crucial for comfort.
5. Measure Temple Length:
   • Measure from the hinge of the frame (where the arms attach) to the end of the temple arm. This measurement ensures that the arms of the glasses sit comfortably behind the ears.
6. Measure Frame Height:
   • Measure the height of the lens from the lowest point to the highest point. This helps in understanding how much of the lens will cover the wearer’s field of vision.
7. Check Overall Fit:
   • After measuring, ensure that the proportions of the frame align with the wearer’s face. The center of the lenses should be in line with the pupils.

Tips for Accurate Measurements

• Use Millimeters: Eyeglass measurements are typically in millimeters, which allows for greater precision.
• Take Multiple Measurements: For accuracy, measure a few times and average the results.
• Consider Facial Features: Take into account the wearer’s nose shape and ear placement for comfort.

Additional Considerations

Consult with an optician if unsure about any measurements to ensure the best fit.

If you’re fitting for progressive or multifocal lenses, ensure there’s enough height for the different focal points.

3. Using A Clothing Size Guide When fitting eyeglasses, it’s crucial to consider the size of the frames, which can often be compared to a clothing size guide. While there isn’t a direct correlation between clothing sizes and eyewear, understanding frame sizes can help you choose the right pair based on comfort and fit. Here’s how to use a clothing size guide for spectacle.

Tips to Simplify the Process

• Try On Frames: If possible, visit a store and try on different frames to see how they feel. Look for comfort around your nose and ears.
• Ask for Help: Don’t hesitate to ask an optician for assistance in finding the right size and style. They have expertise in fitting eyeglasses properly.
• Consider Your Lifestyle: Think about how you’ll use your glasses. For instance, if you’re active, you might want a more durable frame. If you’re in front of screens often, consider blue light-blocking lenses.

Common Questions

• How do I know what size to get? Look for the size measurements on your current pair of glasses, or measure your face and refer to a size guide.
• What if my glasses don’t fit? Most optical shops offer adjustments for frames. If they’re too loose or tight, you can have them adjusted for a better fit.
• Can I wear contact lenses instead? Yes, if you prefer, but it’s best to consult an eye care professional to see what’s right for your vision needs.
