What Eyeglass Frame Is Right For Me?

November 28, 2024

It’s great to have choices, and when you come into our shop at Omni Eye & Vision (Burnaby), you’ll find the latest eyewear styles from top designers. Whether you’re looking for something simple, serious, smart, or a frame that makes a fashion statement, we’ve got a selection that will fit your budget and style!

Of course, the shape of your face will help guide your choice in determining the best fit for you. We’ve put together a simple guide to make the process easy.

First, what’s the shape of your face?

  • An oval shape is ideal for most frame styles.
  • Angular frames work well on a round face.
  • Rounded frames are a good match for a square face.
  • Frames that are wider rather than higher are best for a long face.

Then consider a style that fits your personality and style. Do you dress trendy, or casually? Are you looking for a professional appearance, or perhaps a timeless, classic look?

The basics include making sure the frame is proportionate to your face, the bridge sits comfortably on your nose, and temples fit comfortably behind the ears. Factor in your hair and skin color when selecting a frame color.

The types of lenses will also be factors in your decision. Are you getting single vision glasses, or progressive lenses? Perhaps transition lenses that adjust to changing light conditions? 

When you come into our shop at Omni Eye & Vision (Burnaby), our friendly, superbly-trained staff will guide you through the process and provide multiple selections in each style. We’ll make sure your prescription is up to date and provide an eye exam if necessary. 

Once your eyeglasses are ready, we’ll adjust them to fit comfortably and provide instructions for cleaning and caring for them. We are a full-service family optometrist specializing in customer satisfaction that has made us the No. 1 choice for generations. We’ll make you see better and look great, so please make an appointment or just stop by today!
