People who wear glasses want their eyewear to supplement their style. Eyeglasses and lenses come in diverse colors and styles, but the most important element is how their shapes complement the faces of those who wear them.

We have a well-established reputation for providing high-quality care and compassionate service. Experienced in treating patients and customers of all ages, we are an excellent one-stop solution for the eye care needs of your whole family.
Faces come in a variety of shapes—round, square, oval, heart and triangle—and some faces are a combination of contours. To start you off, here’s a basic guide to which face shapes are best flattered by which frame shapes. In the end, though, it’s all about what makes you happy.
Square
Oval and round frames help balance defined angles, such as sharp jawlines and rectangular foreheads. Thin frames wider than your cheekbones soften things up.
Round
Angular and geometric frames—especially ones that sit right above your cheekbones—balance out circular faces by making them appear thinner and longer. Or how about cat-eye frames? They nicely highlight eyes and cheeks.
Heart
Go with D frames. Their shape diverts the focus from your forehead. Want to add balance to your face? Try on frames that are a bit wider than your forehead. Oval frames will bring out your eyes.
Triangular
Sculpted like a pear, they’re distinguished by a narrow forehead and wide jaw. Shift attention from your jawline to your forehead. Frames with bold tops have the best effect, along with aviators, cat-eyes and D-frames.
Oval
Lucky you! This ubiquitous shape benefits from many models. You have the luxury of experimenting and then deciding which offer the best effect.
