Find the Perfect Designer Prescription Glasses for Your Face Shape and Style

Choosing the right pair of designer prescription eyewear doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s all about finding a pair that suits your face shape, fits your style, and gives you the comfort you need. Whether you're eyeing Prada prescription glasses, Rayban prescription glasses, or Lindberg glasses, our Birmingham opticians can help you find the right designer eyewear to improve your vision. 

In this article, we'll help you figure out how to pick the best designer eyewear frames for your face shape, highlight some of our favourite brands, and remind you why booking an eye test with our Birmingham opticians should be your first step.

Step 1: What Glasses Does my Face Shape Suit Best?

The key to finding the right designer eyewear frames is understanding your face shape. Once you know that, you can pick frames that complement your features. Here's a simple breakdown of which glasses frame styles tend to work best for each shape:

1. Oval Face Shape

Lucky for you, oval faces are the most versatile! Almost any frame shape will work, but you might want to try something with a bit of structure. Rectangular or square frames can add definition. Think Rayban prescription glasses or Prada glasses. Both are sleek and help balance out your soft facial features.

2. Round Face Shape

For round faces, you’ll want frames that add some angles. Rectangular or angular frames are a great choice because they’ll give more definition to your face. Frames like the Rayban wayfarer glasses or Lindberg prescription glasses have sharp lines that can help elongate your face and add some contrast to softer features.

3. Square Face Shape

With square faces, the goal is to soften the sharp angles. Round or oval frames are your best bet. Lindberg glasses are a fantastic option here, light, minimalist, and perfectly round. If you want something more fashionable, go for a pair of Prada prescription glasses that can help soften those angular features with a little more flair.

4. Heart Face Shape

Heart-shaped faces are wider at the forehead and narrower at the chin, so you want frames that add balance. Round or cat-eye frames are great for this shape, as they help to balance out the wider upper portion of your face. Rayban prescription glasses are a solid choice, especially Rayban aviator glasses if you’re after something with a bit of personality.

5. Diamond Face Shape

Diamond faces have high cheekbones with a narrow forehead and chin. Oval or round frames will work best here because they soften the angles of your face. You might want to try our Prada eyewear glasses for a bit of a luxury edge. 

Step 2: Find the Right Brand for You
