One of the elements of the image of a modern stylish and successful man are glasses. They not only protect the eyes from sunlight and correct visual impairments, but also give an idea of the social status and character of their owner, thus being a kind of business card. But in order for the external image to match the essence, you need to carefully select the frames for men's glasses.

Of course, you can't go to the first optical shop you see and buy the most expensive item. Men's spectacle frames should fit the type of face and eliminate, rather than emphasize, possible appearance flaws. Not all representatives of the strong half of humanity are able to adequately assess whether a particular model suits them or not. You can go to choose frames for men's glasses in the company of your beloved woman or a good friend, but in this case, you may have to reconcile half of the entire range in the store. Sales consultants can also give good advice, but there is no guarantee that they will not only offerexpensive models. Therefore, it is best to use the services of a stylist.

Glass frames for men, like women, should be comfortable and light enough. Lenses, especially glass with large diopters, significantly increase the weight of the accessory. As a result, glasses can put pressure on some parts of the face: the bridge of the nose, the auricles, the cheeks under the eyes. In addition, they can constantly slide to the very tip of the nose. If this occurs, opticians may slightly bend the behind-the-ear arches, but this technique is only possible with metal products.

Men's eyeglass frames made of metal are the most versatile, they are suitable for both business suits and casual wear, easily combined with other accessories. They are not as conspicuous to others as plastic models. All metal frames are coated with a special coating that gives the glasses color, shine, and a beautiful appearance. It also protects the skin from metal contact. But when wearing glasses for a long time, the coating, unless it is made of gold, in places of contact with the face can gradually wear off. On the skin in these places, irritation, peeling and itching may appear, since the metal is one of the strongest allergens. To avoid this, you need to have several pairs of glasses with such frames, as well as models made of plastic.

Men's fashion for such an accessory is quite conservative, but still it changes. And the greatest changes are undergoing plastic spectacle frames for men. Many manufacturers make them noticeable, bright and massive, so that such an accessory becomes just a stylish and fashionable element of appearance. Plastic is a lightweight material, so frames made from it weigh a little.

There are also frameless models of glasses, in which the lenses are attached to the temples with screws. They look simple, weightless and "transparent", while very stylish. But, according to modern optometrists, rimless glasses can harm the eyes. In addition, the sun's rays are refracted in a special way, passing through the lenses, and concentrated at their edges. As a result, they heat up, which can cause skin burns.
