Non-prescription sunglasses are popular because of their fashionable look and UV protective function. Though there are a lot of designer sunglasses without prescription and are purchased “over-the-counter” named “plano”, there are also sunglasses incorporated with regular eyeglass prescription.

During the past few seasons, there are several styles preferred by customers, including sport wraparounds, glamorous cat-eyes and “Jackie Os”, rectangular and angular styles and so on. In fact, the latest styles are always changing. Modern styles with fresh details such as rhinestones, cubic zirconia and tinted lenses are popular, such as sleek wraps, Jackie O shapes, etc.

Materials used in sunglass frames usually include plastic, basic metals and specialty metals such as titanium, aluminum and stainless steel. Moreover, some frames contain both plastic and metal. Most customers like to choose special metal styles for their lightweight, thinness and strength, such as titanium, aluminum, and stainless steel and so on.

The most important rule customer should follow when buying sunglasses is that the frame must fit comfortably on the face. Once the frame doesn’t fit well, you should require an adjustment from your doctor. Your doctor may adjust metal frames though betting slightly and tightening the screws. If the frame is made of plastic, he may heat and form it directly. Face style and preference should be the first criterion when you choose the color and shape of frames. Some customers like bold styles and colors because they take sunglasses as special eyewear. In addition, choosing high-quality lenses is also important. Impact resistance, scratch resistance and corrosion resistance are some of the requirements of lenses.
