As much as we would like it to, vision doesn’t stay 20/20 forever. While some of us visually impaired walk around with glasses our whole lives, others, or the “lucky ones” as I call them, don’t need glasses until later in life. Especially in today’s digital age, we’re squinting, reading, and glancing at screens daily, which can cause wear and tear on our eyes.
If you’ve made it to the stage where you’re experiencing headaches, fuzziness and blurriness, and tired eyes when trying to read, it may be time to invest in the dreaded: reading glasses. But don’t worry, you’re not alone. This is a completely normal part of aging, and more than that, it’s an opportunity to get some stylish frames!
The Basics
When selecting your perfect pair of glasses there are several factors to consider, such as style, color, and fit, but most importantly, strength. The strength of reading glasses refers to the strength the lenses provide, meaning the higher the number on your prescription, the more powerful your glasses are.
Since no two eyes are the same, it’s critical to get glasses with the correct strength for your eyes. Consulting your optometrist for an eye exam is the best route to go, but if you’re itching to get to the store sooner, you can use the trial and error method. When trying on readers, make sure you bring something to read. So you can figure out which strength works best for you. In general, your first pair of reading glasses will have a lower lens power and will increase as you age.
The Fit
When selecting reading glasses it’s also important to consider your face shape, so you can feel confident wearing them whenever, wherever! With the right style and fit, your glasses will quickly become your new favorite fashionable accessory.
Round Face
Contrast the soft features of a round face with strong angular frames, such as rectangle, retro square, or browline shapes. These types of frames will add dimension to a round face, while round styles can add extra width to the face. When shopping for frames, look for lenses that are wider than they are deep.
Square Face
Square faces are defined by boxy features like a strong, rectangular jawline. Soften these features with an oval or round frame, or even cat eye style frame in some instances. Rimless frames can also help soften sharp features, but stay away from square and rectangular frames as they can accentuate those sharp features.
Oval Face
If you have an oval face and need glasses, you’re in luck. Almost any type of frame looks good on an oval face, just take your pick! Although you have your choice of round, rectangle, or whatever your heart desires, keep proportions in mind. A petite face will work well with half frame or rimless readers, while a longer face can sport full frame glasses.
Trending in Blue Light
With screens every way we turn, blue light could be putting strain on your eyes and seriously affecting your sleep patterns. Though there are a few ways to protect yourself from blue light, like avoiding bright screens 2 to 3 hours before bed, we know you’re probably not going to stop scrolling on your phone until it’s time to snooze. Luckily, many glasses are now being made with blue light lenses that can help filter blue light when you’re looking at a screen, reducing eye exposure and strain. You may not realize it, but eye strain can cause headaches, dry eyes, fatigued facial muscles, and more. So, next time you’re picking out a pair of reading glasses, try out blue light blockers and see what a difference it makes.
Heart Shaped Face
A heart shaped face is fairly distinguishable, with a sharp jawline and narrow chin. Since these types of faces are typically widest at the forehead, upswept styles like cat eye, retro square, and rectangular frames compliment this shape well. The trick for heart shaped faces is to find shapes that balance out the varying widths of their face.
