Do you need a new pair of glasses? If so, it can be difficult to choose the right style and type of glasses for your needs. With so many options available, it can be hard to know where to start. A quick trip to Shermin Lahijani OD, Hollywood Optometrist will help you find the perfect glasses for your face and visual needs. Let’s look at some factors to keep in mind when choosing glasses.

Pick the Right Frame Material

The first step in choosing the right glasses is to pick the right frame material. There are four main types of materials used for frames: metal, plastic, titanium, and wood. Each eyewear material has its own set of benefits and drawbacks.

Metal frames are strong and durable, but can be heavy and uncomfortable. Plastic frames are lightweight and affordable but can break easily. Titanium frames are strong and lightweight but can be expensive. Wooden frames are unique and stylish but can be heavy and challenging to find the right fit.

Find the Perfect Size

The next step is to find the perfect size for your face. This can be tricky, as glasses come in all shapes and sizes. The key is to find a pair that complements your facial features. If you have a small face, opt for a smaller frame. If you have a large face, choose a larger frame. Our eye doctor can help you find the perfect pair for your face type. However, in terms of frame and eyewear style, you will have to decide for yourself.

Check the Glasses Comfort

Make sure you check the glasses for comfort. The last thing you want is a pair of glasses that are uncomfortable to wear. Be sure to try on the glasses before you buy them and make sure they fit well. Our office carries a wide variety of "Universal or Asian Fit" frames for those individuals that have a lower or flatter nose bridge. We also offer wide fit or extra large frames that accommodate a larger head size.  Our experienced opticians will help you choose the best fit for your individual needs.
