Choosing the Best Frames

Best Eyeglass Frames for Rectangle Faces
If the time has come for you to shop for new glasses, you shouldn’t stress about picking out a new set of eyeglasses. Even if you don’t know what the best shape is for your face, visiting a professional eye care center can help make the process much easier. After all, those professionals working there are specially trained to be able to help people find the best and most flattering frames for their face. If you want to have some idea of what to look for, however, there are a few things you can learn about frames and how they are measured, as well as what the best shape of frames is for people who have rectangular faces.
How Are Frames Measured?
Frames are most commonly measured, at least visually, by their height and width. The height and width are influential factors as far as what they will look like on someone’s face. However, other important measurements including where the temple attachment is located, the diagonal distance between the corners of the frame, and the location of your eyes alignment when the frame is worn are also just a few considerations that can have a profound effect in terms of how the frames look on your individual face.
Of course, the overall shape, color, and frame material are also important factors to take into account. For example if you have a rectangle-shaped face, certain elements should be considered to help find the right pair of glasses for you.
Great Frames for Rectangle Faces
If you have a rectangle-shaped face, choosing frames is all about balance. The frames selected should help to de-emphasize the length of a rectangular shaped face. , Try to pick frames with a deeper vertical dimension along with a darker full rim. Frame Shapes that work well are Aviator, or round or square in shape. You’ll also want to pay particular attention to the color and thickness of the bridge (the area that rests above your nose and connects the two lenses in a pair of glasses). If your eyes are wider set apart a darker thicker bridge serve to help diminish that distance and pull the face inward making it appear that your eyes are not set far apart. .
As previously mentioned, finding the best frames for rectangle faces means finding ones that balance out the length of the face. Since rectangle faces are longer than they are wide, the glasses chosen should help to shorten the appearance of the face

Michael Scampini2023-04-30I went in here to get glasses and felt like I was making friends. The staff is super friendly and my sarcasm worked to make the experience fun. Honestly, my glasses are the best pair I have ever had in my 40 years of life. They fit perfectly and the fun extra tests fine tuned them just right. When the front desk person can make you smile just by being her (or him)self you know you are in a good place. I'm so happy my insurance brought me here and my eyes are happy too. Oh and for the front desk person, go raibh maith agat, it's important to thank good service in Ireland.

Alexa Arakelian2023-04-17I absolutely LOVE coming to Rosin, and I've exclusively come to the Michigan Ave location because of how great the staff and their level of care is. I just went for my eye appointment and had changed insurance since the last time I was in. They helped explain my new coverage, all the pricing and really worked with me to figure out what was going to be best. When I picked out my frames, I stayed for about 30 minutes debating between some. Kayla (I apologize if I got the name wrong) sat with me and was so encouraging and helpful. I really felt looked after and I appreciate it so much. I recommend Rosin to everyone I know!
