How to Choose the Right Frames for Your Patients' Face Shapes

How to choose frames based on face shape

Selecting the perfect frame is about more than just style—it’s about functionality and comfort. Optometrists should consider a patient’s face shape when recommending frames to ensure the best fit and look.

• Round Faces: Rectangular or square frames help add definition.

  
  

• Oval Faces: Most frame styles work, but bold, angular frames add contrast.

  
  

• Heart-Shaped Faces: Frames that are wider at the bottom, like cat-eye styles, balance out the face.

  
  

• Square Faces: Oval or round frames soften sharp angles.

When selecting eyewear for your patients, remember to take their preferences and needs into account to ensure both comfort and aesthetic appeal.
