Your Guide to Low Bridge Fit Glasses
Sure, we know that shape is one of the most important things to consider when buying eyeglasses, but equally important is comfort. After all, if you’re going to wear something on your face for most of the day, it better feel good. Finding frames that fit on your face without slipping or sliding might mean considering low-bridge fit style glasses.
Read on for all the juicy deets on specific bridge-fit styles worth knowing to make your glasses suit your face like they were made for you—because they pretty much are.
What Are the Differences Between Low Nose Bridges and High Nose Bridges?
To understand the bridge fit on your glasses, let’s dig into the differences between low and high noses. Low nose bridge features are most commonly associated with broader and flatter facial structures, including high cheekbones and wider nose bridges. High nose bridges often appear on people with narrower face shapes and angular features. Assessing your features is the first step in finding comfortable, properly fitting eyewear so you can love putting on your favorite frames.
What Are Low-Bridge Fit Glasses?
Those with broader face shapes, low nose bridges, and higher cheekbones might find most standard-fit glasses don’t really sit firmly on the nose and tend to slip right down. And since nobody wants to absentmindedly push their glasses back up onto the top of their nose every several minutes, low-bridge fit glasses exist with a specific design that ensures a secure fit at the top of the nose and won’t interfere with the top of the cheek.
How Do I Find Low-Bridge Glasses?
Okay, you’re sold. But how do you hone in on low-bridge glasses? Easy. Look for clever details like raised nose pads, a wider, upward-tilting bridge structure, and curved temples that lend extra stability. These elements conspire beautifully to deliver a secure fit you’ll put on and say, “Ahh.”
