Hey all!

I’ve needed glasses ever since I was a teenager - but my mother was the one choosing them. She picked relatively neutral frames, though I never liked the shape of the lens.

Now I need to buy a new set as an adult but… How exactly do people decide which frames work better for their face? Trying them at the store my mind just becomes blank, I don’t know what I should be looking for. Any tips?

    I like to bring my partner when I shop for frames; she’s the one who has to look at my face all day, and she has a good fashion sense. You might try bribing a friend to go with you, or send them photos so they can help you choose.

    You can also ask an optician at the shop for their opinion.
