How to choose suitable glasses
In modern society, glasses have become one of the necessities for many people. However, in the face of a wide range of eyewear brands and types, many people often fall into difficulties in choosing. As an expert of Shanghai New Vision Eye Hospital, Dr. Tian Xiaobo has summarized a set of principles and methods suitable for the public to choose glasses after years of clinical experience.
1. Determine whether the degree is accurate
Before choosing glasses, you should first ensure that your degree is accurate. Only the accurate degree can ensure the correction effect of glasses. Usually, the accuracy of the degree needs to be determined by an optometrist or an ophthalmologist, who will use professional instruments to measure the degree of your eyes. At the same time, it is also necessary to recheck the eye degree regularly to ensure that the corrective effect of glasses is always in the best state.
For people with two eyes of different degrees, doctors will also choose appropriate glasses matching methods according to their visual needs. For example, install lenses of different degrees on two glasses, or use progressive lenses to meet different needs of myopia and presbyopia.
2. Choose a frame that suits you
The frame is the appearance of glasses. Choosing a suitable frame can improve your personal image. However, the functionality of the frame should also be considered. First of all, the frame material of glasses should meet your needs. For example, the frames made of different materials, such as metal, plastic or titanium, have different characteristics.
In addition, you should also pay attention to whether the size and shape of the frame match your face. If the lens frame is too large or too small, the correction effect of the lens will be reduced. The shape of the frame should also take into account your facial characteristics, and choose a frame that can highlight the advantages and modify the disadvantages.
Finally, pay attention to whether the length of the mirror legs is suitable for your ears and head contour. Too long or too short mirror legs will affect the comfort of wearing.
3. Understand different types of lenses
Choosing the right lens is also one of the key factors in choosing glasses. Different types of lenses have different characteristics and suitable scenes. Ordinary lenses can correct myopia and hyperopia, but the effect is not good for presbyopia. The progressive lens can correct myopia, hyperopia and presbyopia at the same time, and is suitable for older people to wear.
In addition, there are blue light protective lenses, anti ultraviolet lenses and other special function lenses. These lenses can effectively reduce the damage of blue light and ultraviolet ray to eyes, and are suitable for people who use computers for a long time and outdoor activities.
When choosing lenses, you should also consider your own work nature and personal needs. For example, if you need to be outdoors frequently, you can choose lenses with UV protection function.
4. Pay attention to the comfort and service cycle of glasses
The comfort of glasses is one of the most important factors in choosing glasses. Wearing uncomfortable glasses will not only affect the visual experience, but also may cause eye discomfort or fatigue. Therefore, when choosing glasses, it is necessary to choose lenses and frames with high comfort as far as possible.
In addition, the service life of glasses should also be considered. A pair of good glasses should be able to accompany you for a long time, so it is also important to choose materials and processes with good durability. At the same time, glasses should be maintained regularly to keep them clean and functional.
Summary
When selecting glasses that are suitable for you, you should first ensure that the degree is accurate, and then select the frame and lens type that are suitable for you. At the same time, pay attention to the comfort and service cycle of glasses. By paying attention to these aspects, we can choose a pair of glasses suitable for ourselves to improve visual comfort and image.
