What Men Need to Know about Choosing Their Prescription Glasses?

Men’s prescription glasses are fashion accessories that can and will (when chosen properly) make a man look good. When it comes to choosing them a man needs to find something that combines style with practical use. In addition, it makes sense to go with eyewear that is durable and which will last for a long time. The more stylish the eyewear is the more a man can show off his personality. They are also an important part of a man’s image and so should be chosen with care.

When the time comes to choose your eyewear you need to first of all look at the frame angle. Most men prefer aviator or wayfarer items but the good news is that there is plenty more to choose from. Ideally, it makes sense to go with a pair that shows off your face to good effect. This is possible if you choose a pair that contrasts with the shape of your face. If your face is angular then you should opt for rectangular prescription glasses while if your face has natural curves then you should go with a frame with nice curves.
Another point that you have to keep in mind is that the shape of the lenses can either accentuate your face or detract from it. If your face is square shaped or if it has high amount of angles then you should opt for rectangular frames. If however your face has fine features then the best frame for such a facial structure is the slim frame, which will not take attention away from your features.
When choosing men’s prescription glasses it makes sense to go with frames that are curved in shape. The rule is that you should opt for a frame that has similar lines as those of your cheekbones. As mentioned we should go with frames that balance practicality with style. You also have different kinds of frames to choose from including full frames, semi-rimless and rimless frames. The former go well with most facial structures and they are available in many nice materials and colors as well as designs. However, full frames are not very versatile because you need to be very careful about choosing a frame that complements your facial structure and there are not all that many options available.
Semi-rimmed prescription glasses are slightly more flexible because they are not so imposing. If you want to wear semi-rimmed frames then it makes sense to opt for those that have metal wire frames. Semi-rimless frames are good when worn by a person who wants to emphasize their brow lines.
The third option available to you in regard to frame style is the rimless variety. These are very versatile frames because there is nothing to choose from in terms of frame color and frame material. However, they do not offer you much scope to be creative. On the flip side they work well with all facial structures. All that you need to be worried about when choosing the rimless frames is the lens shape and its angle.
The bottom line is that when it comes to picking your men’s prescription glasses you need to pick something that makes you look good and which also combines style with practical use.
