What are the side effects of wearing large-framed glasses?

  • by LiuSamuel

Friends, I don’t know how long the popularity of large-frame glasses has been around. Large-frame glasses make your face look smaller. Did you know that the bigger the glasses, the smaller the face? This matching trick may aggravate your myopia!

In fact, not everyone is suitable for wearing large-frame glasses! Especially patients with small interpupillary distance and high myopia!

There are two important parameters for optometry: diopter and interpupillary distance. When wearing large-frame glasses, you need to consider the interpupillary distance in particular. The distance between the centers of the two lenses should be consistent with the interpupillary distance. Otherwise, even if the prescription is correct, you will feel uncomfortable after wearing the glasses and affect your vision.

While large-frame glasses can improve your appearance, they can also have a certain impact on your eyes because the lenses are too large.

 

1. Wearing large-framedglasses for a long time can easily cause discomfort.

Large-frame glasses are heavier, and if worn for a long time, they may compress the nerves on the bridge of the nose and orbit, causing symptoms such as eye fatigue or numbness between the bridge of the nose. In addition, if a person wearing large-framed glasses lowers his head or shakes his head a little too hard, it is easy for the glasses to fall off.

2. Large-framed glasses often cause problems with interpupillary distance.

The lenses of large-frame glasses will make it difficult for the center distance of vision to be consistent with the person's own interpupillary distance. The large frames of glasses often cause the optical center distance of the lenses to be greater than the interpupillary distance, so symptoms such as vision loss, strabismus, and dizziness are prone to occur. The longer you wear it, the higher your myopia will be.

3. Frequent wearing of large-framed glasses will continue to reduce vision.

The power of each area of the spectacle lens is different! Generally speaking, the power in the center of the lens is slightly lower than the power in the periphery of the lens. Our pupil focus is based on the center point of the lens. If you often wear large-framed glasses, the heavy-framed glasses will easily slide down, causing the pupil focus to be unable to be consistent with the center point of the lens, causing visual impairment and vision impairment. keep falling.

 

Which one do you choose for eye appearance?

IFV Glasses recommends choosing frames like this:

Light weight, the lighter the better. Light frames can reduce pressure on the nose and are comfortable!

It is very important not to be easily deformed. A frame that is easily deformed will not only affect its service life, but also affect the vision correction effect.

If the frame is of poor quality, it is prone to desoldering and discoloration, which directly affects the use time of the frame. Therefore, the frames should be of high quality.

Because everyone has different facial features, the face may be fat or thin, the bridge of the nose may be high or short, or the left and right ears and left and right faces may be asymmetrical, resulting in incorrect wearing. Therefore, sometimes it is necessary for an optical technician to make it according to various optometric parameters.

At the same time, ophthalmologists and research institutions have reported that those with a prescription below -5.0D can choose a wider range of frame shapes and sizes; those with a prescription between -5.0D and -8.0D should try to choose a frame with a smaller width. Full-frames or half-frames; if the prescription is above -8.0D, choose a small full-frame glasses!

Compared with the health of glasses, beauty seems unimportant. It seems that the only way we can use large frames is to control the degree of myopia.
