How wide should your glasses be?

The width of your frames should not be wider than the width of your face at the temples. The top of your frames should be no higher than the line of your eyebrows. The lower edge of the frames shouldn’t sit on your cheeks otherwise they will start to rub against your skin and cause irritation.

What temple size do I need?

The temples of your frames should fit around your ears securely and comfortably. You should be able to shake your head without your glasses sliding down your nose. However, temple lengths also don’t vary all that much. They’re commonly offered in 5 mm increments: 135, 140, 145 and 150 mm.

What does it mean when your PD is too small for a frame?

We expect the pupils to sit slightly closer to the inside of the frame than the outside, but fairly central to the centre of the lense. If you have a small PD of 40 or so, you will need a frame with a smaller PD, and trying on glasses with a PD of 60 will make you look almost cross-eyed.

How wide should my glasses be?

How do you know if your glasses are too wide?

You can test this by smiling and seeing if your glasses rub against the apples of your cheeks. Your eyes should look out from the center of the lens, and the temple arms should rest lightly against your face. If your eyes are more toward the nosepiece of the glasses, the glasses may be too big.

How big should glasses be?

The width of the frame should match the width of your face. This means, when looking at you straight on, the glasses should not hang off the side of your face (this would mean the frame is too wide) and we should not be able to see the sides of the temples (this would mean the frame is too narrow).

How do I know my sunglass size?

You can measure the distance between your temples to find the perfect sunglass size for your face. Start by looking into a mirror and then placing a straight ruler so it is lined up with each temple. Measure the distance across your face, from one temple to the other. That distance is the best frame size for your face.

How do you measure mm for glasses?

You can measure your frame dimensions with a millimeter ruler or cloth measuring tape.

  1. THE FRAME WIDTH. Measure horizontally across the entire front of the frame.
  2. THE LENS HEIGHT. Measure the lens vertically, at its tallest point.
  3. THE BRIDGE.
