At Infinite Eye Care, we want you to be completely comfortable with your glasses. We stay up-to-date with the latest trends in eyewear and lenses to keep you looking your best. The problem is, sometimes even the best-looking frames don’t fit the best.
When your glasses are fitting properly, they will feel more comfortable, look more put-together, and ensure proper correction to your vision.
The fit of a pair of glasses is determined by four key elements:
The Frame
The width and style of the material surrounding the lenses. The frame should be level with your eyes and extend a proper length across your face.
The Temples
The extension that runs from the frame and sits on your ears to position your glasses. These must be to a specific length so that the curve does not sit too far in front of or behind your ears.
The Bridge
The portion of the frame that rests on your nose to position the placement of the lenses. The basics of determining if your bridge fits is to see how it is resting on your nose. If the bridge span is too small, your glasses will be placed too high which disrupts your pupil position. If the bridge span is too large, your glasses will continually fall down throughout the day or be positioned too low. It is crucial that despite the style of the glasses, your bridge is fitting properly so that it is nearly level with the center of your eyes.
Pupil Position
Where the pupil of your eye is in relation to your lenses. Your pupil should be near the center of your lenses to ensure that your glasses are properly correcting your vision. If your glasses are not positioned correctly, they may not actually be doing their job!
Assessing these four elements will enhance the look and feel of your glasses while improving the quality of your vision.
