If you wear prescription eyeglasses, you need to make sure you get your eye and vision exam every year. If you're wearing an old eyeglasses prescription, you aren't seeing as clearly as you could be. You need your eye exam so that you have a fresh prescription every year. At Riviera Opticare, we have offices in Mesa and Scottsdale to help you choose the best eyeglasses. We offer a number of styles, including trendy styles, classics, retro frames, and more. We also have them in a wide range of colors and various shapes so that you can get just the right pair for your specific features and face shape.

Choosing the Best Eyeglasses Color

The color that you choose for your frames shouldn't simply be a color that you like. It should be a color that goes well with the colors of your hair and skin. To narrow down your color choices to the best ones for you, hold up various frame colors to your skin and then your hair. See how well it goes with both. For instance, tortoiseshell frames tend to go with all skin colors, but red may not look good with certain hair colors. It's easy to narrow down your choices until you have just one color that looks best on you. Then, it's time to pick the shape of your eyeglasses frames.

Frame Shapes

Frame shapes can be narrowed down in a similar fashion. There are various frame shapes, such as square, cat eye, oval, etc. The shape that you choose should look good with the shape of your face. Your face may be round, triangular, or rectangular. The idea is to pick a frame shape that makes your face look similar to an oval.

If a frame shape can't do that for you, it might be better to keep trying on shapes to see how well they work for you. Once you have your color and shape narrowed down, it will be easy to find just the right pair for you. A good pair of eyeglasses will enhance your good looks and help you see more clearly.
