There are many different types of women’s readers and what works best for you will depend on a variety of factors such as when and where you will wear them, whether practicality or style is more important, your face shape and style preference. At Tiger Specs we have vast experience in helping people decide what is right for them, so we’ll look at some of the things to consider when choosing the best women’s readers.
Frame shape
In deciding which frames to choose, you should consider your facial features, fashion sense and lifestyle. Some guidance around what shape to choose involves selecting a shape that complements your face shape. In general, round faces suit angular frames, so look at square or rectangular frames to add definition and balance. Square and diamond-shaped faces tend to suit oval or round frames, which soften the angles and heart-shaped faces, which are wider at the top and narrower at the bottom suit cat eye frames. If you have an oval face, this is the most versatile shape and most frame styles will suit you.
Frame colour
You should choose a colour that complements your skin tone, hair colour and your personal style. Warmer skin tones tend to look best with earthy colours such as brown or warm metallics, whilst cooler skin tones are more suited to black, silver or cool toned frames. If you intend to wear your reading glasses in professional settings, you might prefer to opt for a more subtle colour that will match a wider range of outfits. However, if you will primarily use them at home, you might want to go for a bolder, trendier frame. Ultimately it is up to you to decide whether you want a bright, fun colour or something more neutral – or even a pair of each to suit your current situation and mood.
The best frame for you is the one that makes you feel comfortable and confident, so explore a few different styles and trust your instincts. Choose a style that enhances your appearance and reflects your personality.
Function
Depending on when you want to use your women’s readers, there are many different options to choose from. If you do a lot of screen work, you should consider a pair of computer glasses which have blue filter lenses that reduce the amount of blue light that reaches your eyes. This can help reduce eye strain and headaches and also aids sleep.
Bifocal reading glasses feature a D shaped section with the reading strength at the bottom of the lens and have clear lenses in the upper part. These are ideal for either reading or close work such as crafting. Neck hanging glasses are the most convenient choice if you need to take them off frequently, as they have long curved arms, so they can hang around your neck when you don’t need them.
