Women's Glasses

The right frame shape depends on the shape of your face, and there is a clear logic to it. Our dedicated glasses and face shape guide covers every face shape in detail. With specific frame recommendations to help you find the most flattering fit for your features.

Yes. Varifocal lenses are available to add to any women's frame at checkout. Varifocal glasses give you clear vision at distance, intermediate and reading in a single pair with no visible line.

For glasses you will wear from morning to evening, comfort comes down to three things: frame weight, fit and material. Lightweight frames such as titanium, TR-90 plastic or thin metal alloys are best to consider.

Frames with adjustable nose pads give you more control over fit. They help prevent the sliding and pressure points that make heavier frames uncomfortable over time.

For lens comfort, high index lenses may be a good option if you have a strong prescription. This will reduce the weight and put less pressure on the nose and temples during long periods of wear. Adding anti-reflective coating or blue light blocking make a noticeable difference during screen-heavy days. They help reduce the glare and eye strain that comes from artificial lighting.

Yes and getting the size right is important for comfort and prescription accuracy.

Each frame on our site includes three key measurements:

Lens diameter (the horizontal width of each lens)

Bridge width (the distance between the lenses across the nose)

Temple length (the length of the arms)

Women tend to have a narrower face width and a shorter distance between the eyes than men. Frames designed specifically as women's styles are usually smaller. For further information see our guide how to measure frame size.

Although eyewear trends change over time, the classic shapes for women remain ever popular. Some of the most popular women's glasses styles include cat-eye frames, round glasses, square frames and oversized designs. These styles remain popular because they combine everyday comfort with fashionable design.

Choosing a frame shape that suits your face shape and personal style can help you find glasses that feel comfortable and look great. The classic rectangle frame remains a popular choice for women's reading glasses.

Trending frame styles for women's spectacles include classic rimless designs, vintage-inspired style frames, and bold statement frames. Oversize frames are also popular, as are timeless thin metal frames. Cat eye frames and Aviator glasses remain popular styles, while smaller rectangle frames are classic options. The iconic Wayfarer and Round are constant trend setters.

There are no right or wrong frames, the choice is yours! You may wish to consider your skin tone and hair colour when selecting a frame. Picking a frame that fits comfortably and complements your look is key. For further information check our how to select the right frame colour guide that should help.
