Oval Prescription Sunglasses

Oval sunglasses for different face shapes

Oval sunglasses are very versatile and are often considered a universally flattering choice. They work particularly well for those with square, heart-shaped, and round faces. The curves of an oval frame contrast harsh, sharp lines, improving balance and one’s appearance.

Heart-shaped faces, which are known by a broader forehead and narrow chin, can be enhanced by oval prescription sunglasses. The rounded edges of the frames aid in minimizing the forehead width. The elongated shape of an oval lens complements the more narrow chin, creating a balanced overall look.

A round face also works well with oval sunglasses because of a balance in proportions between the frame and face shape. The elongated design of an oval frame adds length to the face, creates a more streamlined appearance, and balances the face’s natural roundness.

Oval sunglasses are an excellent choice for those with a square face. Square faces have strong jawlines, well-defined cheekbones, and a broad forehead. The curves and balanced proportions of oval sunglasses provide a complementary contrast to the angles of a square face. The oval edges of the frames add softness to the structured lines of the face.

The perfect frame color and material for your Oval sunglasses

When selecting a frame, you should consider frame color, material, and comfort. The perfect frame color and material should enhance your appearance, improve your comfort, and reflect your personal style. Neutral colors like black, tortoiseshell, or dark brown are always popular. They are both classic and versatile. Neutral colors work well with many outfit choices and occasions and are timeless. Unique frame colors like deep blue, green, purple, or burgundy can make a statement and elicit many compliments. Transparent acetates in pink or gray have been popular for the last several years and are still increasing in popularity. They feel modern, but yet seem to disappear on the face.

You may want to research your skin tone prior to choosing the perfect oval prescription sunglasses. If you have a warm skin tone, your veins will appear green or green-blue as opposed to a cool skin tone, where they appear more blue or purple. Emerald green, purple, and light or bright blue may look better on those with a cool undertone. Frames in this color family are best paired with a gray or G15 lens tint. Peach, coral, beige, and gray are all great choices for those with warm undertones. Frames in this color family are best paired with a brown or a G15 lens tint.

Frames are typically constructed from either acetate or a combination of metals. Acetate frames blend style and comfort and are available in various colors, patterns, and finishes. Metal frames appear more modern with their sleek, thin, “barely there” appearance. If you are sensitive to the weight of the frame on your nose or ears, you should consider a more lightweight construction. A lightweight but durable option like Titanium may be best. The shape is ideal for someone with a high prescription, as the rounded edge of the frame can better hide the chunky edge of the lens.

Oval prescription sunglasses are available in a wide range of lens prescriptions, tints, and colors. They can be ordered with polarized lenses for the best visual clarity, enhancement of color, and reduction of glare. Tinted lenses change the color of the world to match the lens tint. Oval sunglasses can also look very cool with a mirrored lens where the world is reflected within the lens.

Whatever oval sunglass frame you choose, it should complement your skin tone, eye color, and face shape and, most importantly, represent your personality. It’s important to have fun with your oval prescription sunglasses!
