Start with fit and proportion: check lens width and bridge size to match your face. Choose a silver metal finish that complements your skin tone and wardrobe, and select lenses with essential UV protection.

Focus on frame size (lens width and bridge), frame material and weight, and how the oval/silver style fits your face. Also compare lens options (prescription compatibility, coatings) and overall value for the brand.

For work, prioritize a subtle shine, comfortable fit, and durable coatings. For reading, look for lighter weight and stable nose supports; for social occasions, consider a slightly more distinctive finish or branding.

Ask about prescription compatibility (single-vision or progressives), available lens options, coatings (anti-reflective, scratch resistance), and policies (returns/warranty).
