Round Frames

Eyeglasses have become a fashion statement; they come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. When eyeglasses were first developed, there was one basic style – the round frame. Despite all of the new options in eyewear, many people still prefer the simplicity and classic design of round eyeglasses.

What are round frames?

Round eyeglass frames are said to convey intelligence, thoughtfulness, and honesty. These frames are considered the most authentic eyewear design available. They come in a variety of colors and materials and can be used by men and women of all ages.

Why choose round frames?

People tend to choose eyeglass frame shapes that flatter their overall appearance. Eyeglass frame shape should be in contrast with facial shape, which means that round eyeglasses are ideal for men and women with square, heart-shaped, and diamond-shaped faces. Round eyewear can minimize a prominent jaw line and balance out a small chin. Round glasses also highlight the eyes and soften angular features.

Benefits of round frames

Round eyeglass frames have a timeless appeal. Celebrities like David Letterman and John Lennon are known for wearing round eyeglass frames, as well as public figures like Mahatma Gandhi. Round eyeglasses have a retro, classic look that many people gravitate toward when selecting frames.

Round frames can accommodate lenses with any type of prescription for improved visual acuity. They can be made of metal, titanium, or plastic and come in a variety of colors and designs, like tortoise shell and vintage black and gold. The next time you have to choose a new pair of eyeglasses, make sure to try out some classic round styles to see if they fit your style.
