Boost confidence with eyeglass frames that suit your face and lifestyle.
Sometimes we may hesitate when choosing eyeglass frames: does this style suit me? Round or rectangular? With or without nose pads? Selecting frames suitable for your needs and face shape can boost self-confidence, akin to wearing jewelry.
Most wearers tend to prioritize fashion over function, but did you know that certain frames necessitate specific lenses? Conversely, some lenses require specific frames to reduce focusing errors. So, what should we do? Let's start by understanding the basics of eyeglass frames.
Eyeglass frames consist of three main parts:
- Frame width
- Bridge width
- Temple length
These components help us choose frames that fit us comfortably. By trying different sizes, we can determine which width and temple length provide a snug fit without being too loose or tight, ensuring optimal effectiveness and comfort when wearing glasses.

In terms of frame width, larger-sized frames with wide nose bridges may not be suitable for individuals with a narrow interpupillary distance, as it can restrict the field of vision. This is because there is less usable space in the lens area due to the narrower head space, leading to reduced effectiveness of the glasses and potential discomfort or eye strain due to the imbalanced frame causing misalignment of the lens focus points.

When it comes to the question of whether it's better to wear glasses with or without nose pads, nose pads are actually crucial components of eyeglass frames. They provide support for the weight of both the frame and the lenses. However, the suitability depends on the wearer's comfort and the type of lenses, especially personalized lenses such as progressive and office lenses. Both these lens types have a somewhat limited range for measuring the distance between the back of the lens and the wearer's eye. Opting for a frame without nose pads might result in a smaller distance between the back of the lens and the eye than the specified value. This could cause the glasses to sit too close to the face, leading to suboptimal visual performance
