But once you have you glasses how do you make the most of them? Here are some hints;

  • Tell your optician about your lifestyle before you get your glasses. They might be able to steer you in the direction or products and services which might be suitable for you.
  • Makeup for glasses wearers – You tube star Tanya Burr has great advice for any teen girls or ladies who are having to re think their make up now that they are glasses wearers.

  • Don’t get dazzled by the big names. Lots of opticians stock beautiful designer name frames. Frames from big names such as Chanel might have a great logo on them but at the end of the day the most important thing is that they suit your face shape. Try on lots of  frames, take pictures and only pick the ones that you will be happy wearing.
  • If you are prone to allergies or skin problems ask about frames made from a hypoallergenic material. And also wash your glasses regularly – not just cleaning your lenses but the entire frames as can pick up bits of makeup and hair product.
  • Keep your glasses nearby at all times – If you are anything like me, when you leave your glasses behind that is that day that you are sure to need them – the eye strain and migraine are not worth it!
