Men glasses

June 22nd, 2015

The conventional wisdom is that glasses do make a man look smarter. Regarding to men glasses, the color and the shape are less than that of women glasses. While women have a plethora of knowledge at their fingertips to help them pick and choose their personal style, men have it a bit rougher. Too little guiding information exists to help them out, and many men are taught that worrying about fashion is frivolous anyway. But when it comes to getting men glasses, it’s important for men to make a decision that’s going to work for them over a long period of time.

Depending on your lifestyle, there are different types of lenses that can serve as valuable assets to you. Do you work outside a lot, or switch from being indoors to outdoors often? Transition lenses darken once exposed to sunlight, and will protect your eyes from UV rays and from over-squinting. Do you drive often, and experience difficulties seeing through glaring from the sun or headlights at night? Your optician can give you polarized lenses that will cut through this glare significantly and give you a sharper image. Also, if your prescription is stronger than a 4.00, you might want to discuss getting your lenses specially compounded to avoid a Coke-bottle effect over your eyes. You may have more considerations to make before choosing your perfect pair of glasses, but these are the bare minimums. If you don’t yet have an optician, major cities are full of qualified clinics waiting to help you. They can also help you look through dozens of frame varieties, and assist you in choosing the pair that is perfect for you as an individual.

Understanding your own face shape is not only important for choosing the best haircut and facial hair style, it will also help you choose your ideal spectacle frames. If you have a square jaw, you’ll want rounder frames to soften out your angular features. For those with round faces, you’ll do well with rectangular, bolder spectacle frames. A heart-shaped face is more difficult to complement, but you’ll find success in rounder frames that pull the focus from the forehead. If you’ve got an oval face, you can wear almost any type of frames you’d like. Unfortunately, no one pair of glasses will flatter each face the same way, so you’ll want to experiment with multiple spectacle frames to see which ones compliment you best.

Fun Facts About Men’s Bifocal Reading Glasses

October 18th, 2011

Lately, men’s bifocal reading glasses have been causing quite a stir on the optical market. People are rediscovering the multiple merits of this old product and rushing into the local drugstores to buy it. Those who have been troubled by the inconvenience of switching between different pairs of specs for different tasks for years can finally end up with a product that solves their problem once and for all. Others who had moved on to progressives, also known as no-line bifocals, and find themselves never passing the adjusting period are coming back, tolerating the disgrace of have a telltale sign of age on their faces but appreciating the real functional joy bifocal reading glasses offer. Once again, this type of specs whose origin can be traced back to one of the founding fathers of the United States, Benjamin Franklin, is experiencing its heydays all over again.


Well, just how exactly do these specs work? To answer that, you need to be aware of the fact that some of us who have vision problems aren’t just suffering from a single vision error. More often than not, two or even three refractive or accommodation problems are found in the very same persons, that is to say, he may be presbyopic, myopic and astigmatism all at the same time. For such an individual, going about simple daily businesses might turn out to be quite a torture for due to their multiple defects in their vision, they need to constantly switch between specs for different purposes to meet different vision requirements. Bifocal glasses change the whole game by blending two lenses of varing prescription powers into the same frame. With such a uniquely creative design, the wearer can look through the lower parts of lenses, which oftentimes offer short range vision correction, to see things up close and look through the upper parts to things at distance. Unlike progressive glasses which takes a quite painful adjustment to get used to, bifocal reading glasses are easy to use and trouble free to our eyes, to boot.


Many of you might have already noticed the fact that male wearers of bifocal reading glasses considerably outnumber female ones. What’s behind this fun gender difference? Well, as is explained above, bifocal glasses have two lenses blended into one frame. As a result, the vision field for each part of lenses is considerably reduced. Such effect is particularly obvious in the case of women’s bifocal specs in that frames for such specs are often smaller than those for men due to aesthetic reasons. Women’s bifocal glasses, therefore have a huge downside in terms of vision field whereas men’s bifocal reading glasses suffer from no such problem.
