Choosing Eyewear Just Got A Lot More Fun…

Choices, choices, choices. Walking in to an optical practice and seeing hundreds of different pairs of glasses on display can be a daunting task, especially when only a select few of those spectacles will suit your face, your skin tone, hair colour and your individual style.

That’s why at Clark Family Eyecare, our dispensing team have studied the art of spectacle styling. To us, its important to understand your personality, fashion style and what you will be using your glasses for. Using this information we will narrow down the selection of spectacles styles that are a match to you and show you how different shapes and colours can create different looks. The fun bit is you get to try on glasses that are more likely to suit you and feel confident in your final choices.

Here’s just a few things we look for when selecting eyewear:

Facial Proportions

Forget face shape, its all about facial proportions, choosing eyewear depending on the width and length of your face is imperative to keeping in proportion. We’ll look at the length and width of your face in comparison to frames to ensure the best fit.

Bone Structure

Depending on whether you have a softer or more chiselled jaw line the shape of a frame can intensify or soften these features. None of these are wrong and will depend on the overall style you are trying to achieve.

Brow Shape

Your brow shape plays a large part in finding the most complimentary spectacles.

Colouring

Hair colour, eye colour and skin tone are all important factors when choosing eyewear. Every colour can be worn by almost everyone but have you ever considered whether you are wearing the right shade of that colour?

Choosing Your Lenses

When it comes to choosing your lenses, we’re experts. From your prescription and understanding how you will be using your new glasses our dispensing team will discuss the best options for you and your budget.
