The types of frame styles and selection suggestions can be divided into full frame, half frame, frameless, and browline frame according to the installation method of the lenses.
Among them, the full frame and browline frame will also be square, round, irregular, and so on according to the different types of photos, which are just derivatives of the frame type.
The full-frame glasses are wrapped around the lens frame, which has the advantage of firmly fixing the lens and preventing it from falling off. The frame is fixed to the lens by screws, making it easy to remove screws to clean or replace the lens. Maintenance of the glasses is relatively easy, but the disadvantage is that adding half of the frame increases the weight of the glasses.
Fashion glasses, decorative glasses, and sunglasses generally use full-frame glasses. Full-frame glasses give people a sense of stability. The frame can effectively cover the thickness of the lens, making it suitable for lenses of different heights.
The upper half of the lens of the half-frame glasses is wrapped and fixed by the frame, while the lower half is fixed with a ribbon. Without half the frame, the weight will be lighter than that of the full-frame glasses, but the firmness will be slightly lower. Moreover, the lens is difficult to remove and requires special tools.
The browline frame glasses give a gentle feeling. Generally, half-frame glasses are business style, and now there are also some trendy half-frame glasses. The regular half-frame glasses have a frame on the top and a brushed bottom, while the trendy styles have a frame on the bottom and a brushed top.
