Women’s Reading Glasses: Things You Might have Missed about Your Readers


 Michal Marcol/FreeDigitalPhotos.net

Not all women’s reading glasses are the same. Before you buy a pair of readers, you should know your exact need in seeing things clearly.

And women are like their reading glasses. No two women are alike.

Even if you can readily buy a pair of reading glasses over the counter or through an online purchase, it always pays to spend time assessing your specific needs before your place your order.

Do you struggle to read with the paper away from your face?  Can you see things, or read text in clear vision, even at a distance?  Do your eyes squint too often when in front of your computer screen?  These are just some of the questions you should answer as honestly as you can before you make a decision as to what style of women’s reading glasses to buy.

Full Frames or Half-Frames  

When does one use full-frameglasses?  When you find text blurry when you read it at close range, or when reading consumes a great deal of your time at work, you would need the full use of your lenses, thus full-frame women’s reading glasses are your best choice.

However, for people who need correction eyeglasses only when reading text intermittently, half-frame reading glasses would be good enough.

And of course, for those who can’t resist the sun, sun-readers fitted with UV-protective lenses are also available. Tinted reading glasses also belong in this category.  With a pair of sun-readers on, you no longer put down a Danielle Steele paperback while relaxing near the pool or at the beach simply because the sun is up.

For women who “live and breathe” technology, and who are spending a lot of time before their computer screens, you can now protect your eyes with anti-glare women’s reading glasses.  Just like other styles of reading glasses, this techie-friendly type of eyewear now comes in different designs, colors and frames.

Don’t Skip This Part

Cleaning your reading glasses regularly with soft cloth and making sure they are not placed, with their lenses flat, against a rough surface is one of those ways you can make your eyewear lasts a long time.  Remember that caring for your pair of women’s reading glasses is making an investment towards your most important resource – your eyesight.

    This is great information! I wish I knew half of those things when I needed reading glasses. Before I went to Bay Area LASIK, I could never find the right pair of reading glasses. I had no idea that there were so many. But I am just so glad that now I don't need the glasses at all. Thanks for this post, I am going to pass it onto my sister who still has her reading glasses.

How do you choose the best women’s reading glasses for face shapes other than round or oval?  It is helpful to know some tips that can come handy when you shop online for readers that you cannot try on.  Forum sites offer valuable information, so don’t skip those.  Read on for more tips culled from experiences of people who are constantly wearing glasses. Tips for Heart-Shaped Face Think how lucky some women are to have love written across their faces!  Heart-shaped faces always look great with the right reading glasses on; however, it is not always easy to find a suitable pair for a face that has a broad forehead and a narrow chin.  If you have this face shape, go for rimless reading glasses as these “minimize” the prominence of your forehead.  To create an illusion of a wider chin, women’s reading glasses with frames that are wider at the base are the best.
