Who should choose oval-shaped glasses frames?
Full-frame oval glasses tend to be elegant, with soft lines and slender contours. Visually, oval glasses direct attention to the top of the face. The result is an appealing, layered look that many wearers love.
Compared with round glasses, oval glasses are still softer. If you want a more feminine presence, choose oval-frame cat-eye glasses. You can buy them in a variety of fun and professional colors.
Generally, we recommend choosing oval glasses that will be slightly wider than your forehead.
Those with a lighter prescription will benefit more from frameless oval glasses. Without the rim, the wearer’s vision is wide, enhancing comfort, something that matters to wearers of all ages.
- For men, half-frame oval glasses are the best choice. The slightly thicker parts of the frame will cover some of the eyebrows. This focuses attention on the metal edge of the lower half, resulting in a subtle, confident look.
- For women, cat-eye designs in the oval frame shape are a classy, fashionable option with a sophisticated touch.
What face shapes are best suited for oval eyeglasses?
Oval eyeglasses are versatile and complement a variety of face shapes. They are especially flattering for square faces, rectangular face shapes, and heart-shaped faces. This is because the soft curves of oval frames balance out angles, providing a harmonious look.
Diamond-shaped faces also look lovely with oval glasses frames. They enhance the wearer’s eyes and harmonize with their cheekbones, chin, and cheeks for an alluring balance.
Note that some face shapes are not as well-suited to oval frames. People with round, oblong, and oval faces may have better results with other frame styles.

At Yesglasses, we offer flexible, rimless, aluminum, plastic, and metal frames. Make your choice based on your needs, preferences, and the advantages of each material.
Can oval eyeglasses accommodate progressive lenses?
Yes, oval eyeglasses can accommodate progressive lenses. The shape provides ample vertical space for the different vision zones required in progressive lenses. This makes them a practical and stylish option for those needing multifocal lenses.
How do I choose the right size for oval eyeglasses?
Choosing the right size involves considering the frame width, bridge width, and temple length. It's essential to ensure that the frames fit comfortably without pinching your nose or ears.

Can I get oval eyeglasses with blue light blocking lenses?
Yes, you can. Blue light lenses help reduce eye strain from prolonged screen use, such as when you spend a lot of time at a desktop computer.
You can add these to your prescription lenses to provide both vision correction and blue light protection.
What should I consider when choosing the color of my oval eyeglasses?
Consider your skin tone, hair color, and personal style when choosing the color of your oval eyeglasses.
Neutral colors like black, brown, and tortoiseshell are versatile, while bolder colors can make a fashion statement. It’s best to try on different colors to see which complements your features the best.
