Online shopping has overtaken the conventional form of shopping to a major extent. From sun glasses to complicated electrical appliances, everything can be bought from online retailers. Sunglasses are an important accessory as they are necessary for the protection of your eyes, plus they define your personality too. Whilst there are many pros to buying sunglasses online especially from a reputable online store like eyestaroptical.com, there is one major drawback though that you have to suffer from sometimes: you cannot test and try sunglasses before purchasing them. Do not let this one drawback stand in the way of buying sunglasses online. Here are some useful tips which will help you in picking your ideal sunglasses online without having to try them on first.
1) Choosing the Suitable Frame • Okay, so the first step in choosing a stunning pair of sunglasses is to observe the shape of your face and then buying sunglasses with a frame which compliments your face. In general, those of you who have a round face, should go for sunglasses which come in rectangular frames. While those with a diamond shaped face having regal high cheekbones and face bones should purchase oval framed glasses as they compliment the shape of their face. People who have square shaped faces and have a relatively broad forehead and chin should go for round or oval framed sunglasses as they provide more sharpness to their face. Those of you who have a triangular face cut i.e. they have a broad forehead and relatively narrow jaw, should purchase sunglasses which have a straight top line.
2) Choosing the Right Lens • Now that you are done with choosing the suitable frame which compliments your face, it's time to choose the right lens. These days, polycarbonate is the most favored material for the lens of sunglasses. It is lightweight, prone to scratching, and is long lasting. Along with polycarbonate, lens also come in glass and plastic. If you want a heavier feel to your sunglasses, you should purchase sunglasses whose lens is made of glass. Glass, too, is scratch resistant. Plastic lenses are favored due to their affordability and light weight.
3) Additional Features: • So now you can take off two things from your list: frame of sunglasses and lens' material. Now it's time to look at other special features like polarization. Polarization is a phenomenon which is successfully implemented in sunglasses. Polarized sunglasses protect your eyes against glare from water and snow. Polarized sunglasses were first used by fishermen to avoid the glare of water whilst searching for fish in water. Ever since then, polarized sunglasses have been in use by athletes, skiers and car drivers to avoid glare from the roads. Polarized sunglasses will be more expensive, so depending upon your need and usage choose amongst the polarized and non-polarized sunglasses.
4) Usage and Requirement: • Depending upon the usage of your glasses, choose your glasses accordingly. For e.g. if you use your glasses on daily basis, you should go for typical fold out designs. But if you need the glasses only for skiing or some other sport, you should buy a pair of sunglasses which have a durable and strong wrap around design.
