Start with frame width and bridge fit to ensure a comfortable, balanced look; oval shapes suit many faces, but the right size is key for proper alignment with your eyes.

Focus on frame size (eye size, bridge width, temple length), material and weight, and lens options (prescription compatibility, UV protection).

Look for coatings like anti-reflective or blue-light filtering if you’ll spend long hours at a screen, and check nose pads or temple tips for all-day comfort.

Ask where you’ll wear them most and what activities matter; for computer work, prioritize lightweight frames with anti-reflective/blue-light coatings, and for outdoor use ensure UV protection.
