For those with a wide face, measuring accurately is essential to ensure a comfortable and stylish fit. Let’s dive into the simple yet crucial steps of measuring your face for eyeglasses and sunglasses.

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

Before you begin, gather the following tools:

  • A flexible measuring tape
  • A mirror
  • Pen and paper to jot down measurements

Step 2: Measure Your Face Width

  1. Forehead Width:
  • Start by measuring the width of your forehead at its widest point. Place the measuring tape across your forehead, just above your eyebrows.
  • Record the measurement.

2. Cheekbone Width:

  • Move the tape to measure the width of your cheekbones. Start from the outer corner of one cheekbone, across the bridge of your nose, to the outer corner of the other cheekbone.
  • Record the measurement.

3. Jawline Width:

  • Measure the width of your jawline by placing the tape along the edge of your jaw from one end to the other.
  • Record the measurement.

Step 3: Assess Face Length

  1. Forehead to Chin:
  • Measure the distance from your hairline on your forehead to the tip of your chin.
  • Record the measurement.

Step 4: Determine Face Shape

  1. Round, Oval, Square, Heart:
  • Use the measurements to determine your face shape. Round faces have similar width and length, while oval faces are longer than they are wide. Square faces have equal width and length, and heart-shaped faces have a wider forehead and a narrower jawline.

Step 5: Use SizeGlasses Sizing Guide

  1. Refer to SizeGlasses Sizing Guide:
  • Check the SizeGlasses sizing guide to find frames suitable for your face measurements. The details page for each pair of glasses has specific measurements and sizing instructions for the glasses. You can choose the most suitable one based on the size of the glasses and the width of the face.

Additional Tips:

  1. Consider Temple Length:
  • Ensure that the temple length of the frames is suitable for your face. Temples that are too short can cause discomfort.

Conclusion:

Measuring your face accurately is the first step towards finding eyeglasses and sunglasses that complement your wide face perfectly. By following these simple steps and using the SizeGlasses sizing guide, you’ll be equipped to make an informed decision, ensuring both comfort and style in your eyewear journey.
