Choosing the right glasses can be tricky, especially when you have a larger face or need glasses that fit comfortably. If you've been wondering whether large glasses frames are right for you, this guide will help you understand the benefits and determine the perfect style for your face.
How to Tell If You Truly Need Large Eyewear Frames?
1. Comfort and Fit
When you have a bigger face and are experiencing any of the following, it might be time to upgrade to larger eyewear frames.
-
Temple indentations: Red marks or discomfort around your temples and ears may indicate your frames are too small.
-
Limited vision: Lenses cutting off peripheral views indicate undersized frames.
-
Nose pad gaps: If nose pads float above your bridge, the frame width is likely too narrow.
2. Face Shape and Size
A larger head or wide face typically requires a more substantial frame to balance proportions. Additionally, certain face shapes, such as those with wide foreheads, high cheekbones, or round features, are better suited to larger eyewear frames as well.
Additionally, it's important to measure the width of your face correctly. Check out our size guide page for more information to ensure you pick the correct frame size.
