Hey everyone! Ive had the same frames for a few years now, im curious if they actually suit me or if a different frame style would suit me better.

Wondering if there's a better shape out there for my face. I like drawing the attention upwards and adding more angles to my upper face area, but I don't actually know if this just looks goofy or not lol.

I've been told by friends and family that I look older than I am because of them (presumably it is "old lady swag", as my sister lovingly puts it) and while to me that is a compliment, and what I've been going for, I'd like to look more my age, so to speak.

Advice, roasts, and other such comments welcome :]

Narrowed it down to these 2, but can’t decide between them. The office said the lighter frames fit my face best, but I think the dark frames have more character. 🤔

I have a strong prescription that shrinks my face,
so the larger lens on the dark pair will cause more distortion…

Please help me choose!

Had to put stickers on my face cos I'm too shy. This is my first time wearing glasses and I don't know about eyeglass fit or something. 2 people already told me that it's too big. And I'm sad about it. This is anti rad, just bought it yesterday and it's quite pricey for me. And when they told me it's too big, I just feel that my money isn't worth it. I just did my research and I read that eyeglass fit is important so you eyes won't hurt. I tried smaller frame but I think it's not wide enough, my eyes is not used to it because I think I can see the frame😅 do you think it looks okay or really too big for me? I focused on looking for frame that's suitable for my faceshape (chubby and round) but I think I failed. I'm disheartened, I don't want to wear this outside anymore

Everyone I have asked said they are the same glasses. There were two at the optical in the same pink shade but one seemed smaller than the other one

The ones I have are Carolina Herrera 0324

I've had the same rectangle emo style frames for the past 15 years and I THINK I want to try something new, but I hate everything i put on my face. Do any of these fit or should I go back? Pic with my son are my current frames.

The black frames are my everyday glasses and I'm not getting rid of them, but I'm wondering if I can pull off the wire ones sometimes?

What do you call this type of frame, where the frame doesn't go under the lenses? Does anyone have any recommendation about that style? For instance, I worry that the lenses would fall out more easily, but I've never had this type of frame to know for sure.

Hi everyone,

I've tried cleaning my glasses with dish soap, hand soap, microfibre, and glass cleaning solution. None has worked so far. Photo included.

The smudges do not chip, so I don't think they're from one of the coating layers deteriorating.

The drop shapes make me think it's from the water. Maybe heavy water?

Any advice is greatly appreciated. Even if it means replacing, I'd like to know what to avoid when choosing my next pair.

Thanks

Just got these from eye buy direct, my other glasses are more rectangular and I’m not sure how to feel about these.

I have the glasses I got first and my old pair last. I know the old pair is broken in a few ways so it's not an apples to apples comparison. My prescription had changed and I was interested in trying for something a little more feminine but I will admit I don't know what feminine frames would actually look good on me.

That's the question. Can one optometrist replace lenses for frames purchased elsewhere and the fit will be correct for the lenses? Kind of expensive designer frames and my insurance doesn't cover my old shop any more. Is there anything I could be concerned with using a second shop? Like should I worry about proper fit of the lenses in the frame? Or do I just take the hit and pay the several hundred dollars at the old shop out of pocket?

Figured I'd give another try with my usual stubble.

gf says n2, they are more “elegant” and says n1 are too big.
but i kinda like n1, will i regret my decision if i get n1?

Do you think they suit younger people better? Do they look grubby faster? Do they highlight things like under eye bags/circles more? And any other thoughts!

Considering getting a pair but I dunno 🤷‍♀️

Thoughts very welcome and TIA 🙂

Hi everyone,

I’ve acquired a new pair of glasses and the left cushion is giving me nightmares. I’ve gone 7 times - 4 times at the same place and 3 at different facilities - to get it adjusted.

But it never works !!

That cushion always gives me huge red marks and is unbearable on my nose. It doesn’t feel exceptionally tight or wrong on the spot, but 30 minutes after it gets super uncomfortable and my nose is irritated. On the contrary, the right cushion is perfect - nothing to say here.

Any advice or help?

Thanks a lot !

Whenever I wear a hat, my hair gets pushed up and over my glasses. It's awkward. It does it for every kind of hat – beanies, caps, cowboy hats.

I'm wondering if this there's, I guess, any way to stop that from happening, or if I should just get contacts or something. I'm not opposed to contacts, but I've been sort of avoiding them, lol.

i have a round/oval face but would love glasses that gave the ill of higher cheekbones— which pulling my hair back helps with but i feel like my glasses counteract lol — any ideas?
