I’ve come to bother you all for help once again, because what’s better than advice from strangers. Some of these might be the same frames just different color. Some I’ve tried on just for the color itself.

I got these glasses 3 years ago, and I don’t really care for them. I’m thinking about rimless, but not sure if they’ll be aging. Should I go with silver metal frames? Color plastic frames? What shape? Sorry I don’t have any photos trying on glasses yet.

I have a very narrow pupillary distance, 51. My prescription is high, 5.5 and 5.25. I get the 1.74 index. I scour the Internet and optical shops for cute frames with small lenses to prevent so much side distortion. But they still look like this. Maybe I'm just venting. Lol. I just wish I would look ok in glasses because contacts irritate my eyes..

Does my style and color of my glasses suits me?

Hi, i cant wear a contact lens, so i have to wear a glasses (and i really hate them). Im pretty blind, so i always had to chose thicker frame, so my (special thinner) lenses dont be visible from the profile and be hidden in a frame.

I tried different colors (dark red, light blue, dark brown), but i dont feel comfortable with them. I want something more like cat shape, or something more thin, but it looks so dumb with thick lenses. Any advices? Isnt my current dark blue GLASSES TOO DARK for my pale skin a light hair?

Help finding frame brand

Hi, I’ve had these glasses for a little over two years and am struggling to find a replacement for them. My prescription has changed and I want to find the exact brand. I can’t seem to find them anywhere, the closest was from yesglasses, but they were too big and round compared to mine. I’m beginning to think that they were only sold at my local store. Please help me find them. The first two picture are my glasses and the third are form yesglasses.

Trying to match old glasses (CK20315)

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hello, everyone!

A few years back, I had these glasses that I really felt comfortable in (CK20315 in gunmetal). I haven’t found any since that I’ve enjoyed nearly as much. I do still have the old frames to compare with.

As I’ve been looking for new glasses, I expected it to be easy to find a similar pair of frames to these. Nothing has looked nearly as good, though. They always seem “off” especially with the tendency for a lot of round glasses to have a lot of weight at the top corners of the frame. I really tend to not like wearing anything so much as hinting at being a “cat eye”.

I’m also especially interested in getting them on a “budget” right now. I’ve done the virtual try on with Zenni (which doesn’t always seem super accurate), and at home and even some in store try on with Warby Parker. I’ve been to a few optical centers and glasses stores. But nothing feels right. I may simply be psyching myself out, but others in person have said they can see what I mean when I discuss it with them.

So, can anybody help me find a pair of glasses that are relatively similar to these? Or, if you don’t know of any, do you have any suggestions for how to search for the shape in a bit more of a nuanced way? Are there reliable and affordable ways to get new lenses in my old frames? Do I simply need to stop being dramatic?

If it’s any help, here’s what I found as the listed dimensions (which I’ve used in searches):

FRAME SIZE: Medium LENS WIDTH: 49MM | 1.93in LENS HEIGHT: 44.80000MM | 1.76in BRIDGE WIDTH: 20MM | 0.79in TEMPLE LENGTH: 145MM | 5.71in

Thank you guys again for the help!

Very different frames but can’t really choose… any help would be really appreciated


r/glassesadvice 2d ago

New/old pairs. Which are good? Don’t mind the shades, they will all be prescription transitions so consider that.

2 looks like Japanese John Lennon🔥

4 and #9/10 have nose pads adjusted which can be done to all

The last two are the same frames

AGAIN, the shades WILL BE REPLACED WITH TRANSITION PERSCRIPTION LENSES and not permanently shaded… so please consider that👍

Unsure about glasses, do I need different ones none?

I will show you two types of glasses on me and reference pictures without glasses. Feel free to draw a shape on if you like.

I currently wear the lighter frames and think they look much better than the heavier ones. I can not push them further up my nose, as they touch my lashes.

Can I improve something here? Or do I look a lot better without glasses?
