FAQs
Are these glasses suitable for all face shapes?
While designed to complement round and oval faces by adding definition, individuals with other face shapes can also wear them for a modern, squared look. It's recommended to try them on if possible.
Can I put prescription lenses in these frames?
Yes, these are optical frames designed to accommodate prescription lenses. You will need to take them to an optician to have your specific prescription fitted.
What material is the frame made of?
The frame is constructed from metal, providing a durable and lightweight feel.
What does '55-18' mean in the description?
This refers to the lens width (55mm) and the bridge width (18mm) of the glasses. These measurements indicate the size and fit of the frame.

Always use a clean microfiber cloth. For best results, lightly spray the lenses with an eyeglass-specific cleaning solution before wiping.

Troubleshooting
Glasses feel too tight or too loose
