How to choose the glasses

In the era of printing In the XV century, glasses were invented for farsightedness, for myopia much later in the 16th century. At that time, the glasses were far from the shapes of modern glasses. Every year, glasses improved, the appearance and quality of lenses changed. A huge selection now provides the industry of optics, a variety of frames introduces a short-term shock. Going to the salons of optics can get lost in the abundance of frames to make the right choice, you need to decide what you are getting points for. Someone is picking up glasses for improving visual acuity, someone following the fashion for beauty, and who for coloring style.

So how to choose the glasses? Points should emphasize your personality and it does not matter why you chose them, for work or just show off. The most important quality frame and suitable for your type of face. Each woman has her own features of the eyes, nose, and eyebrows. The frame should be selected correctly, most importantly, to focus on the temples, they should be exactly along the length from the nose bridge to the ears.

Then one of the most important factors is the nose, he does not have to put pressure on the bridge of the nose. Otherwise, traces remain, and the pressure of the nose-drops on the bridge of the nose causes rapid fatigue. Well, of course, the most basic part, which women look at, is the originality of the rim performance. So I want to be the most beautiful, elegant and at the same time it's nice to see.

For each type of face there is a certain frame. For round faces offer a rectangular frame with accentuated straight lines and it is desirable that the frame be two colors, and the glasses are slightly darkened, this shades the roundness of the face. For an oval face resembles any frame, the main thing is that it proportionately was to all parts of the face and did not go over the eyebrows.

Rectangular type of face is better to decorate with glasses, which will close the larger part, visually stretching the shape of the face. The person on the type of square will decorate the glasses with a small frame with a smooth curve line to slightly round out the shape. A large nose can be made less noticeable if you wear glasses with a large rim. A small spout will be noticeable if it is highlighted with a light rim. The elongated nose can be visually shortened by a slightly upturned rim.

When choosing glasses, we often forget that we need to choose not only a frame, but also lenses to them. Here the ophthalmologist comes to the rescue, now at many salons the examination office is opened. Here you can check your vision, and you will write out a prescription for glasses, which you can later purchase in the same salon. Again the question arises, which lenses to choose: plastic or glass? The advantages of plastic lenses are, first of all, weight, such lenses are twice as lighter than glass ones, so your glasses will be twice as light, which is much more comfortable.

Secondly, there is less risk of injuring your eyes with fragments, because plastic is not easily broken. Thirdly, the plastic can easily be painted in various colors to give the image. But let's not completely abandon the glass lens, they also have their advantages. The refractive index is higher than that of plastic lenses. In addition, the strength of glass is higher than that of plastic. This means that quality and well-executed glass lenses, with the same diopters, can be much thinner and flat than plastic ones.

Well, we chose glasses for ourselves, put them on a flirtatious nose, picked up the make-up specially for new glasses and confidently went to conquer the unknown!
