You don’t have to be fashion savvy to find the perfect frames for spectacles. So, when you are looking for spectacle frames, you may want to consider the following tips.
Choose Eye Glasses Frames That Match Your Face Shape
The general face shapes are round, oval, diamond, square, or heart-shaped. Your face shapewill help you determine which glasses frames will suit you perfectly.
Round-shaped face:
This face shape has the same proportions, so you must look for eyewear that has angles that give depth and dimension to your features. Look for square and geometric-shaped frames, rather than rimless or round frames.
Heart-shaped face:
This shape has a narrow chin, a large forehead, and broad cheekbones. So, to balance the features you must choose eyewear that has a wider bottom half. Square or round frames will help draw attention to your sharp jawline.
Oval shape:
This face shape can carry off almost any style because of the high cheekbones and sharp features. Look for rounded frames like aviators, retro round glasses, or oval frames that help soften your angular features.
Square-shaped face:
A square-shaped face has a strong jawline and broad forehead. To soften the features choose frames that even out your facial proportions, like narrow frames, narrow ovals, and frames that are wider.
A crucial point you must remember when you buy spectacle frames online is that opposites attract. This means you must select eyeglass frames that will contrast your facial features. The frame style must bring overall symmetry to your face and enhance your prominent features. At Optica Rwanda, you can check out various frames and see which styles complement your appearance the best.
Find the glasses Colors for Your Skin Tone
Another tip that can be useful when you buy spectacle frames online is to look for colours that compliment your complexion. Your skin tone can play a key role in enhancing your glasses frames, and making them pop! Here’s how you can find the right colour that matches your skin tone.
Dusky complexion:
If you have a warm skin tone, look for colours like brown, honey, gold, beige, and olive greens. Avoid selecting contrasting colours like pastels.
Fair complexion:
For people with cool complexions, you need to reach for frames with silver, black, pink, blue, grey, or purple. Avoid colours that will make you look pale and washed out.

Your skin tone helps you land on colours that actually work with your complexion rather than against it.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What glasses frame style suits my face shape?
The general principle is that your frames should contrast your facial features rather than echo them, which brings overall balance and symmetry to your face.
Round faces suit square and geometric frames, which add angles and definition. Heart-shaped faces, which have a wider forehead and narrower chin, work well with frames that have a wider bottom half, like square or round styles, to draw attention to the lower face. Oval faces can carry off most styles because of their balanced proportions, so rounded frames like aviators or retro round styles tend to work well. Square faces have a strong jawline and broad forehead, so narrower oval frames or styles that are wider than they are deep help soften and even out the proportions.
Optica’s face shape guide goes into more detail, and branch staff can advise in person if you want to try frames before deciding.
2. How do I know if my eyeglass frames fit correctly?
A well-fitting frame should feel secure without pinching, and sit naturally without sliding. There are three things to check.
- Frame width: The frame should not extend past your cheekbones. If you can fit more than one finger between your temple and the arm, the frame is too wide. If the arm presses against your temple, it is too narrow.
- Arm length: The arms should reach behind your ears and rest lightly against the side of your head. If they curve too early, they will push the glasses forward and down your nose.
- Bridge fit: The bridge should sit comfortably on your nose. Too tight and the frame sits too high, affecting your vision. Too loose and it slides down constantly.
If your frames have started to feel loose over time, you can gently bend the temple tips downward. Or visit any Optica branch, and the team will adjust the fit for you at no charge.
3. Can I get spectacles with a prescription at Optica Rwanda?
Yes. Prescription and non-prescription frames are both available. If you have a current prescription, you can enter it at checkout or bring it to any Optica branch. If you need an eye test, new patient registration costs RWF 1,000 and includes your first eye test. After that, eye tests are free for life at any Optica branch, even if you move to a different town.
4. What is the most comfortable frame material?
If comfort is the priority, plastic frames tend to be lighter than metal and are a good choice for anyone who is sensitive or allergic to metals like nickel. For those who prefer metal, titanium frames are worth considering. They are lightweight, hold their shape well, and can support heavier lenses with a high prescription without needing frequent readjusting.
5. Do Optica Rwanda frames come with a warranty?
Yes. All frames come with a standard manufacturer’s warranty that covers defects reasonably attributed to manufacturing. It does not cover normal wear and tear, accidental damage, or mishandling.
6. Can I replace the lenses in my existing frames?
Yes. If your prescription has changed but you are happy with your current frames, Optica can replace just the lenses. This is a practical and more affordable option than replacing the entire pair. Bring your frames and your updated prescription to any Optica branch.
