Everyone has their own ideas which is why the same glasses do not suit everyone. Those looking for the perfect glasses for the shape of their face need to just bear a few things in mind – these will ensure that your reading glasses are a fashionable accessory to complement your personality.

OVAL FACE

+ You are lucky! Almost anything suits this type of face – whether aviator glasses or a wider frame, whether angled glasses or XXL frames.

– If your face is particularly long, it is generally good to avoid wearing glasses with a small lens.

ANGULAR FACE

+ Thin frames and round lens have a soft, harmonious effect. They are often a perfect contrast to an angular face.

– Angular frames can often seem too angled and severe unless, of course, the wearer wants to go for a particularly striking appearance.

ROUND FACE

+ Angular frames create contours and make the face appear narrower. Rimless models are often also suitable.

– Round or very large glasses can accentuate the shape and tend to make the face look short and wide.

TRIANGULAR FACE

+ Narrow frames with oval or angled lenses suit the typical heart-shaped face. Cateye shapes also suit this type well.

– Downwards tapered (aviator sunglasses) often do not flatter the chin area. Large glasses should be avoided, too.
