Then you can go to the pages to filter by the shape of the matched glasses frames.

Frame Size

In addition to the shape of the frame, the size of the frame is the biggest factor affecting wearing comfort, a pair of glasses frames with the right size for you is the best. If you have old but the right size eyeglass frames on hand then just measure the frame size to be sure. Again, after determining the size of your frames you can filter them on the page.
