With the popularity of large frame glasses, many young people go straight to eyewear stores without any other requirements. They just want a pair of large frame glasses, as if owning a pair of large frame glasses would bring them to the world. So is large frame glasses really suitable for every myopic patient? The answer, of course, is negative. Many nearsighted people who have worn large framed glasses report feeling uncomfortable, experiencing dizziness, height differences and tilting when looking at the floor, and sometimes even deforming when looking at things. After inspection, it was found that the size of the large frame glasses did not match their pupil distance significantly. However, after professional optometry and glasses matching, why did this situation occur?
The reason is that when fitting glasses, the parameter of pupil distance needs to be considered, and the distance between the centers of the two lenses should be suitable for the patient's pupil distance. Otherwise, even if the degree is correct, patients may experience discomfort and affect their vision after wearing glasses. While large frame glasses have become fashionable, the optical center distance of the lens is not in line with the actual pupil distance of the human eye due to its large size, which can have a certain impact on the eyes.
When patients with smaller pupil distances are equipped with large frame glasses, some merchants may enlarge the pupil distance for the sake of the appearance of the glasses. However, if patients wear glasses with a large pupil distance for a long time, they are prone to symptoms such as blurred vision and visual fatigue. Therefore, people with smaller pupil distances are not recommended to wear large framed glasses.
In addition, in general, for individuals with myopia exceeding -6.00, it is not recommended to wear a frame that is too large. Even if you choose lenses with high refractive index, if the frame is too large, the lens will appear particularly thick, unattractive, heavy, and comfortable. So, if you want to match a pair of large frame glasses that suit you, you must go to a professional eyewear chain store to find a professional for optometry, compare your pupil distance and glasses degree, and see if you are suitable for large frame glasses. Don't just go to some small accessory stores or buy beautiful large frames online, as this will only cause irreparable damage to your eyes.
