We also offer an in-office lab that allows us to make your glasses the same day, if possible.

At Stirling Eyecare, we understand that for many people, looking good is as important as seeing clearly. In order to better understand which eyeglass frames might look better on you, it helps to understand the different face shapes and the different types of frames that accenuate the features of the different facial types.

You should consider three main points when choosing an eyeglass frame for your face shape:

• The frame shape should contrast with the face shape.
• The frame size should be in scale with the face size.
• Eyewear should repeat your personal best feature (such as a blue frame to match blue eyes

Here is a further description of the six primary face shapes and which types of frames work for each. One of our professional opticians can help you use these guidelines to choose your new eyeglasses.

Take a quick look in the mirror or ask a friend to help find the face shape that is closest to yours.

Oval Rounded forehead and chin of equal size. Most frame styles, particularly geometric or rounded frames.

Rounded Larger curved forehead, full cheeks with a round chin. Geometric frames to sharpen the features and create definition.

Square Wider forehead, cheek and chin area with a slightly angular jaw Rounded, cat-eyed or oval styles to soften angular facial lines.

Rectangular Long or narrow with a squarish chin. Curved and rounded styles to emphasize width.

Triangular Wider forehead narrowing gradually to a slightly rounded chin. Aviator or geometric styles to add width to the chin and cheek area.

Diamond Smaller forehead, with wider temple area that gradually decreases to the chin. Rounded or geometric frames to minimize the width of the temple area.
