Glasses Size - Frame Width
To really know how big a frame is, and how it will look on your face, you have to determine the width of the entire frame. The outer width of the frame is the distance between the visible areas on the left and right sides of the frame, namely, the distance between the frame and the junction of the two temples. The inner width of the frame is the distance between the inner sides of the two temples at 60mm behind the plane of the lens. This is just the contact point between the temple and the human temple. If it is too tight or too loose, it will affect the wearing comfort. The weight of the frame is evenly distributed across the bridge of the nose (or evenly distributed between the two nose pads on the bridge of the nose).
Do kids need blue light blocking glasses?
1. American Ophthalmological Association
The American Ophthalmological Association clearly stated that it does not recommend any special glasses. The organization stated that there is no evidence that blue light from electronic devices can cause damage to the eyes. The discomfort that many people experience after watching electronic screens for a long time is due to symptoms such as dry eyes and even blurred vision caused by digital visual fatigue. The symptoms of using electronic products are related to how we use digital devices, not the blue light emitted from digital devices. There is currently no clinical evidence that blue light causes damage to the eyes, and measures to prevent blue light may be more harmful than blue light itself. It is too early to take preventive measures against blue light and may have unintended consequences.
2. British Association of Optometrists
The association believes that there is a lack of high-quality evidence to support the use of blue shaded glasses to improve people's visual performance, sleep quality, relieve eye fatigue, or protect macular health. There is no research on the effect of anti-blue eyeglass lenses on the health of the macula.
3. Chinese Journal of Ophthalmology
If the blue light is excessive, that is, the human eye is exposed to high-frequency and high-energy blue light, it will damage the rod cells. However, the rich blue environment with intensive exposure and the normalized environment are two different concepts. Therefore, it is unscientific to equate blue light with retinal damage. Individualized blue light protection guidance and recommendations should be put forward under different conditions such as different ages, health conditions, and working environments.

What is the best lens material?
Crown glass was first used to make lenses. The glass melt was blown into a crown, or hollow sphere, and then reheated in the center of a rapidly rotating plate, which was then unrolled and flattened by centrifugal force. Flat and thin edges are cut into suitable shapes to make window panes. The circular bulge in the middle is the prototype of the lens. The glass material used to make lenses was originally colorless transparent glass with a refractive index of 1.523. Other substances were added to the lens to improve its ability to absorb ultraviolet light.
Quinn Eye Center
A team of experienced eye care professionals provides comprehensive eye examinations. It offers high-quality lenses and a wide selection of stylish frames.
By utilizing the most advanced diagnostic technologies, they are committed to improving the quality of life through enhanced vision. The optical studio has a range of carefully designed frames and precision lenses. There are many lenses to choose from. Transition lenses are made from dynamic materials and can replace prescription sunglasses. UV-coated lenses can be used in ordinary glasses. Scratch-resistant coating is a clear coating that helps protect glass lenses from irritating scratches. The plastic lenses make the glasses much lighter than the glass ones. Special polycarbonate lenses greatly reduce the thickness of the lenses, giving them a more attractive silhouette. Anti-glare lenses are dipped in a special material that makes them less reflective than regular eyeglass lenses.

Why do my glasses hurt the top of my ears?
The problem caused by the angle of the glasses rubbing the ears is mainly caused by the following several conditions. Firstly, it may be that the outer angle is not enough so that the feet of the glasses press the ears too tightly. Secondly, the two sides of the glasses are of different heights. Thirdly, the last situation may be caused by a problem within the angle of depression.
