Determining the Best Eyeglasses for Your Face Shape

Picking the perfect glasses for your face shape can be challenging. For some of us, glasses are necessary for our vision, others just for fashion, but when you’ve tried on numerous pairs and can’t figure out which ones look best, it can be frustrating. Knowing your face shape is helpful when choosing a pair of eyeglasses; whether round, square, heart, or oval shaped. The providers at Georgia Eye Physicians & Surgeons offer some tips to help pick the best eyewear for you.

Square: Choose frames with softer oval or round shapes or go for rectangular frames that have smooth edges and will emphasize the browline and balance the jawline.

Heart: The key to heart shapes is balancing the proportions of your cheekbones, forehead and chin and choosing frames that are wide at the bottom.

Oval: Frames that are square or rectangular are ideal for your face shape. The oval shape carries much balance, giving you a variety of frames to work with.
