Statistics show that about one in five children in the world needs to wear glasses. In order to take into account the comfort of children wearing glasses and the development of vision, we need to fully consider the following factors when choosing
glasses frames for children.
The fit of eyeglass frames
The look of the glasses frame should suit your child, they should feel good and not feel weird about the glasses when they wear them. Generally speaking, adults and children have basically the same expectations for eyeglass frames. But the more important thing is to wear it properly. Children's glasses should be comfortable and always fit well without slipping. This is especially important for infants and young children.
The frames should not be too big or too small, and certainly, the glasses should not restrict the child's freedom of movement. The size of the glasses depends on the size of the eye sockets and the distance between the child's eyes. Likewise, eyeglasses must not press on the child's cheek to create indentation and discomfort.
In addition, it should not be higher than the eyebrows or wider than the cheeks. In general: The smaller the frame, the less likely it will be bothersome for the child. At the same time, the glasses should be large enough to allow the child to view in all directions more comfortably. The center of the glasses should be aligned with the center of the pupil.
In principle, children's glasses should be centered as precisely as adult glasses. Even small fitting errors can greatly affect the performance of spectacle lenses. Traditional eyeglass fitting methods typically result in lenses losing more than 45% of their optical performance.
Glasses frame material
Frames should be made of materials that are in line with children's active nature, which means they should be durable, break-resistant, and lightweight.
Some children have allergies, especially to nickel. At this time, it is recommended to choose glasses frames made of pure titanium. This lightweight material is very durable and adapts well to most skin types. In addition, an anti-allergic coating can also reduce the risk of allergic reactions as low as possible. Be sure to check the label that says "Made of Pure Titanium!" when buying.
The choice of glasses legs
Whether your child is very active or not, as part of the eyeglass frame, you should pay special attention to the temples. There should be no uncomfortable pressure on the temples and should also keep the glasses in the correct position. The spring hinge is very strong and ensures that the frame has a long life.
The choice of glasses nose pads
The nose pads of children's glasses should have the largest possible contact surface. The younger the child, the more important this is, because the bridge of the nose is not fully developed, so the weight distribution of the glasses needs to be more reasonable. Gel nose pads are a new accessory that softly rests on a child's nose.
It should be noted that ball games or judo are especially strict on children's glasses because the rapid movement can cause ordinary glasses frames to slide quickly and cause discomfort.
