How to choose the best glasses for your face shape

 

When choosing the right pair of glasses, there are a lot of things you must consider - face shape, fit and lenses, to name a few. There are typically five different shapes to your face and we shared some tips on how to match your eyeglasses with your face shape here.


But, if we take a step back further, how do you know what your face shape really even is? And once you’ve figured that out, what glasses are going to fit it best?


We found this YouTube video by Doctor Eye Health that we thought would be extremely useful! It breaks down how to identify your face shape with exact visuals, and also some tips on how to find frames with the best fit.


Speaking of fit, did you know the new Duru Family of eyeglasses here at Bôhten were specifically designed to provide a better fit for people with larger noses and faces? These frames boast a re-designed nose profile and wider frame proportions based on the distinct facial features of our brand's core base - men and women of African descent. If you haven’t viewed them yet, we definitely encourage you to check them out.

Let us know if Doctor Eye Health’s simple yet detailed explanations proved to be helpful. And we look forward to sharing more advice on eyeglasses with you in the future.
