can i keep my frames and get new lenses?

Choose the right clear sunglasses for your face shape.

A clear eyeglass frame suits the person of different face shapes according to different shapes. For example, a heart-shaped face suits the clearest eyeglass frame, and a square face suits an elliptical transparent eyeglass frame. A round face suits the clear eyeglass frame with an outline. The long face suits the clear eyeglass frame with some width and so on. There are many kinds of clear frames, like oval, round, square frames, and so on.

When choosing clear frames, be careful to choose one that fits the shape of your face. Oval and the round clear frame are more suitable for heart-shaped faces, square faces, and long faces. People with round faces should avoid large frames, dark frames, and wide edges, and don't wear round or square frames.


How much does it cost to change the frames?

The price of changing a glasses frame is very different, from tens of yuan to thousands of yuan, mainly to see the quality of the glasses, material, and so on. Still, you should think about: the use of fixed a number of years of glasses if the glasses have wear and tear if it is worth to change.



Clean your glasses correctly.

The dust of the lens will be washed (lightly), and then use a neutral detergent (cleaner) to clean. You can also buy professional glasses cleaning fluid, finally clean by water, and then use a professional glasses cloth to wipe. If the lens is covered with dust and particles before wiping, it is best to wash it with water and then gently dry it with a cloth.


The Cons of Transition Lenses

However, besides the pros of transition lenses, there are also some negative voices of transition lenses.

The transition lenses are not effective in cars because the windshield blocks the UV rays so that transition lenses won’t darken very well in the car.

Different brands of photochromic glasses have different levels of darkness and different reaction times. So, you may need to ask the doctor to find the brand that works best for you. Transition glasses are affected by colder weather. So it means that it may take a bit longer to react to UV rays in winter. Most transition lenses are not polarized which may result in harsh glares.

So, if you need transition glasses, try Koalaeye Optical, which provides the Koalaeye photochromic glasses. Besides these, Koalaeye Optical also provides other kinds of glasses, such as blue light blocking glasses, polarized sunglasses, progressive sunglasses, and so on.



Don’t Do When Cleaning Glasses

Here are something you can’t do when cleaning the glasses.

1. Don’t use your shirttail, blouse, or other clothing to clean your glasses, especially when the lenses are dry because they will scratch your lenses.
2. Don’t use the saliva to wet your lenses.
3. Don’t use some surface cleaners to clean your eyeglasses because they may damage glasses lenses and coatings.
4. Don’t use some paper to clean your lenses, such as paper towels, napkins, or some tissues. They may scratch or smear your lenses or make them full of lint.
5. Don’t try to remove a scratch on your lenses by buffing away. This action can make the situation worse.


Choose the right color for your glasses.

Black, of course, is the classic color. For boys, wearing black frame glasses can promote the stereo sense of their facial features. Black is the most recognizable color. Black-rimmed glasses will make the outline of a boy's face clearer and make his appearance more handsome. Silver-framed glasses have all the features of metal-framed glasses. But compared to rose gold, silver is a bit more understatement, and it's very versatile and can be worn by guys with different skin tones. Those with darker skin tones can try deep burgundy shades, like popular brown and amber glass frames. Such a frame won't show too dull and won't show too abrupt. At the same time, it will be more harmonious to use a dark skin tone to foil.
