How to Pick Frames for Base-Up

How to Pick Frames for Base-Up Triangle/Heart-Shaped Faces

When you’re ready to start shopping for new glasses, the process doesn’t have to be stressful or overwhelming. You may think that after trying on rack after rack of different frames, you’ll never be able to find the perfect pair that makes you look your best, but that’s simply not the case. Of course, visiting a professional eye care center is your best bet—skilled eye care professionals are trained to be able to help patients narrow down your selection of frames by identifying face shapes and knowing which frame shapes look the best with the patients face shape.

Understanding How Frames Measured

Of course, the height and width of the frames will play the an important  part in determining how well they fit your face , but aside from those dimensions, there are a few other measurements that contribute heavily to a frame’s overall look. For instance, the distance between lenses  have an influence, where a person’s pupil sit  in the eye wires when the glasses are on, also have a strong influence on how those frames look and, how thick or thin the frame material appears is another important factor in whether the frames will look good on someone.

The overall shape, however, is a  good place to start when determining if a pair of frames will be flattering.

What Frames Look Best on Base up Triangular or Heart-Shaped Faces?

How to Pick Frames for Base-UpFor people that have heart shaped or base down triangular shaped faces – there are couple things we will want to accomplish as we browse for frames. We will want to de-emphasize the width of the forehead – since this is the widest dimension of this shaped face. Frame Shapes that work well include round shaped frames, square shaped frames or square shaped frames with rounded edges. These shapes help to de-emphasize the broader forehead. In terms of rim colors and thickness – we will want to find thinner frame rims or rimless frames. Stay away from thicker upper rim frames as this accentuates the wider forehead. The other important consideration is the temple attachment. The temple is the arm of the frame that runs back and over your ears holding the frame in place. Look for frames that have a temple attachment with the rims in the middle (vertically of the rim) or lower vertically in the rim. This subtle but important consideration helps to broaden and balance the lower portion of the heart shaped or base up triangular shaped face in comparison to the forehead.

Eye Exam Rosin Care Reviews

I loved my visit here. I had a great doctor and I highly recommend her. She made the visit easy and smooth but was very detailed in her work. She was very open to my suggestions and gave me lots of options as far as lenses and gave me advice on how to improve my eyesight. The best visit with an Optometrist that I have ever had!

Dr. Sheila O'Shaughnessy at Rosin Eyecare in ChicagoWhat is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
