I went to the eye doctor today and got an exam. I looked at the frames (slim pickings cuz of my voucher for a free pair) and they said they ordered a new shipment of round glasses and I'll come back to see all my options.
I am thinking that I want round frames instead of square. I know square frames are all the rage but I want to give the round frames a try. What do you think? Round frames, yay or nay? |

I like round frames much better than squares. Everyone has square not her unique about that.

Mine are oval. But I think it depends on the shape of your face.

If you are drawn to them and think they look good on you, go for it.

There are some websites where you can try glasses virtually. Like you have a pic and virtually try them.
Personally I am not a big fan of round glasses on me but I think it will look good on you! |

Lark, try them on when they come in and see how they look on you. I think what style looks best depends on the shape of the wearer's face.

It is important to get glasses you feel comfortable with since you are the one who is wearing them.
I went with expensive frameless glasses cause I don't like frames this last time & will not mess with contacts. I was wondering how they would work since I do a lot of clearing brush & work with horses & get hit in the face often. Lol....these are the only pair I have had that haven't broken. In other words....get what works best for you & what you like __________________ Leo's favorite place was in the passenger seat of my truck. We went everywhere together like this.

Luckily for me, the eye center at Fred Meyers is having their once a year special deal on frames. $59 for a pair which is a steal, and it's the same price if I want sunglasses.
Their selection of frames are so beautiful, and to be honest I was not impressed with the frames at the eye doctors. I can't see those frames as being anything but a backup pair. So I will take the backup pair, and then head to Fred Meyers and find myself some beautiful frames and beautiful sunglasses. Like Eskie and others said, I have to find glasses I am comfortable with, and that applies to any shape of frames. |

Oh, and in case you're wondering...I lost a few pairs of glasses in the house fire, and I got a voucher for a free pair, but the eye doctor has only the very basics for what my voucher allows...and after thinking about it I decided to go ahead and dip into my savings to get the glasses at Fred Meyers.

When you wear eyeglasses everyday it’s important to get something you’ll love. Good thinking.
