Bringing Fashion to Reading Glasses

Tips for Making Readers Fashionable
Reading
glasses are a fantastic and inexpensive way to test out eyewear trends to see
if they work for you. But if you’ve been watching eyewear trends emerge from
the Fall 2015 runways, you might be wondering how you can pull off the massive
sizes and bright colors that graced the models from Jonathan Saunders, Zac
Posen, Versace, Emporio Armani and Karen Walker. It’s not always easy to pull
runway fashion off the runway and make it applicable to your daily wardrobe,
but with a little creative thinking, you can translate the essence of fashion
trends into everyday looks.
1. Try
a new shape
Adding
a pair of reading glasses in a fun shape is a super easy way to work fall
trends into your wardrobe. Play up the retro vibe by trying a cat eye, browline
or round style this fall.

2. Focus on
the details
Trends often hide in the details, and this fall is no exception. Look for readers with a plastic front and metal temples, or add a reader with a keyhole bridge to your collection.

3. Update your
color palette
If you already have an eyewear shape that looks great on you, and you’re not quite ready to add glitter to your glasses, try updating your readers with a new color. This fall is calling for a range of blues, with a splash of olive and a hint of pastels.

Feeling brave? Try a frame in grey, or experiment with a clear frame or any other translucent color.

How
do I know what reader power I need?
The
best way to find your correct magnification is to ask your eye care
professional during your examination. Your eye doctor can tell you if OTC
reading glasses are a good choice for your eyes, and they can help you figure
out the correct power for each reading task. We find that our customers are
typically unaware that the reading glasses they use for their newspaper will
often be a different power than the readers they use for computer work, and
that they may need different glasses to get their best visual performance.
If
you have a prescription handy, you can call us for help. Once our optician has
your prescription in front of her, she can do a bit of optical math to
determine the best magnification for your OTC reading glasses. Some prescriptions like those with moderate to high amounts of myopia or astigmatism, or those with significant differences in prescription between their two eyes, aren't great candidates for OTC readers and will need custom prescription reading glasses instead. For a quick check in, you
can always print out a handy guide to give you an idea of what power you need for your reading glasses. When printed out correctly, this guide allows you to hold the paper at your desired distance to see the necessary magnification for each task.
