If you have recently been diagnosed with a refractive vision error, you likely require eyeglasses to help you see clearly and comfortably again. However, choosing the best pair of glasses can sometimes feel overwhelming due to the sheer amount of styles and lens options. Niagara Eye Associates in Erie, PA, is here to help make the selection process easier. We are here to tell you how to choose the best eyeglasses to enhance your vision and look.
Scheduling a comprehensive eye exam with our optometrist or ophthalmologist is the first step toward getting the perfect pair of glasses. This exam assesses your eye health to determine your prescription. Our eye doctors will also discuss your visual needs and lifestyle to help you select the best lenses. For example, we may recommend blue light filtering lenses if you spend extended periods in front of digital screens for work.
Once you have your prescription, it is time to focus on the eyeglasses themselves. Consider your face shape. While oval faces are the most versatile, there are flattering styles for every face shape. Here is a general guideline to follow:
The material of your eyeglasses affects their durability, weight, and cost. Plastic frames are lightweight and affordable, while metal frames offer a more classic look and can be sturdier. Consider your lifestyle and preferences when making this choice.
Additionally, various lens coatings are available to enhance your glasses. Anti-reflective coatings reduce glare, while scratch-resistant coatings protect your lenses from everyday wear and tear. Blue light filtering coatings help reduce eye strain for computer users.
Getting the perfect pair of eyeglasses can not only improve your vision, it can also significantly enhance your look.
